The Passengers' List of The Cyprus reads:
LIST of the PASSENGERS who have arrived at the Port of Port Fairy on the 15th day
of January 1855 from London on board the Cyprus ship. Chas Bartley Master, 258 Tons Register.
Reproduced from 'The Delaney/Dunne Reunion 1978' by D.J. (Joe) Delaney.
There is a transcription error caused by re-touching done to the copy of the microfiche original.
The size of the Cyprus was 258 tons, not 2,500. Also note that Port Fairy was the port for the town
Belfast. The Fairy was a boat that worked from that port. Later on the town took the name of the port.
