Return to SA Passenger Lists,1847-1886

barque Sumner, 695 tons, Captain D. Foreman, from Southampton 6th May 1857, arrived at Port Adelaide, South Australia 21st August 1857

. . . . — 9th ship from England to S.A. with government passengers for 1857 ; —5— births and —1— death on the passage ; Robert Pridie, surgeon-superintendent.

from the Emigration Commisioner's Report for 1857
... The lowest contract price for each adult's passage was that of the Royal Albert, at £12 19s. per head ; the total cost of this vessel to the colony for 231 statute adults embarked being £3,068. The higher prices are found as the year advanced, the Sumner receiving £17 8s. per head, and costing the colony for 235 statute adults £4,138. The largest outlay incurred on account of any one ship was in connection with the Henry Moore, the largest ship of the year, which brought us 382 statute adults (equal to 450 souls) at £16 per head; the total passage-money amounting to £6,104, and the total charge to £6,309. The aggregate charge to the colonial fund for the year's emigration was £51,799 ; of which £50,340 was for passage-money at contract rate. The amount of gratuities to surgeons, officers, &c., during the year is set down at £3,697 ; the lowest amount being £201 to the Navarino, and the highest amount £451 to the Henry Moore. ...
