Seeking information on the barkentine Jane A. Falkinburg. Built about 1854
somewhere on the East Coast, USA by Capt. Charles Falkinburg. It was first
barkentine to pass the Horn and sail Pacific waters. It was placed in East
Indies trade, home port San Francisco. 1856, Capt. Falkinburg died and
vessell was commanded by Thomas W. Badger of East Oakland. In 1887 she ran
aground at Humboldt Bay, was feared lost but refloated and placed back in
service. It continued in coastal trade and was still in service 1891.

Would like to know final disposition of vessel and any other history.

Thank you,

David Absalom
