From on Thursday, 28 August, 2008

I have been doing research about Dr George Playne (1802-1885) and Daniel Jennings (1795-1872) - who were cabin passengers on the 1839 voyage of the William Metcalfe to PP. I know in some of the shipping records Playne appear as Clayne. He was a medico and squatter, and took part in a number of activities in Melbourne (magistrate, Melb Club secretary, secretary of the Separation Committee, and also involved in the preliminary committee to set up the hospital.) He returned to England in 1854.
