According to The Perfins of India by Marcus Werner, the TMC pattern
has been identified as being used in Tirupper. User not identified.

The S.M.N. is also identified also as being used by the Java Bengal
Line, which probably was a local or subsidiary name for the
Stoomvaart.

The L.F.S. pattern has more than 27 varieties listed but none are
identified as to user in the catalog. A few are identified as to
location of use

Thank you very much Rudy,
If perchance you hacve a duplicate copy of "The perfins of India"
I am prepared to raid my son's piggy bank.
Please advise off list.
Otherwise I shall try and find a copy on the web.
Thanks.


According to The Perfins of India by Marcus Werner,

It is completely available online. GRATIS

I just pointed my link to the relevant
pages (175-8) on the Java Bengal Line.

OK, I am not a fan of online books,
but I guess free is a bargain
I was curious why, in a paragraph I read,
why extra vessels were added due to the gold rush in Australia 1850.
I can only assume it being the proximity of fresh fruit and veg or perhaps
the transport of bullion. I'll have to read on
