Notes
a. Note:   The SKIOLD / SKJOLD 406 tons ship, left Altona with 213 German Lutheran emigrants on 3 July 1841. When it arrived at Port Adelaide on 28 October 1841 with 28 families from the same area in Germany as the Klemzig and Hahndorf settlers, it had lost fifty-two passengers from llness during the sea journey.Few ships, no matter from which country, were specially built to carry large numbers of passengers. Most ships had a small number of cabins for business people or wealthy passengers. Almost all migrants travelled between decks, in shared accommodation with rows of bunks. Ships leaving from German ports were often as ill prepared as those from Britain.
