    The brig, LONDON PACKET, 107 tons register, built at Whitby ...

    The Cambrian, 16 Mar 1816
    TO BE SOLD BY AUCTION by John Davies
    That fast sailing Brig, the London Packet, register 106 tons. Will carry from 145 to 150 tons.

    The London Packet as a Schooner (8 Sep 1815) appears between the above two references to a Brig.

    Helachau,

    Thanks for your interest in this. As you have discovered there were numerous "London Packet" vessels of various kinds so difficult to differentiate even on the Lloyds register. The saving grace as it were for the Jury owned one was that it was built in Norway so narrowed it down a bit.
    This of course is not strictly genealogy just the family history aspect and at my age I should not be spending time on it, but unfortunately I have always been a bit of a dog with a bone!!

    Thanks again.

    The one that caught my eye was "the armed smack, London Packet"
