Subject: [AUS-Tas] King River and the Letitia Rock

There is a King River near Macquarie Harbour. Apparently there is a "Letitia Rock" in or
alongside the river. Is such well known in Tas? Can anyone tell me of it, and the history or reason why it is so named? I am researching the shipwrecked (in Cape Verde Is) emigrants from the "Letitia" in 1828 , some of whom settled in Tas. There may be a connection.
