Thank you very much to those who provided information on the Cambalu:

CAMBALU ON 1294.
Wooden Ship.
Built April 1852 by C Lamport, Workington
536 tons
140ft L,28.4ft B, 19ft D.
Owners : J.Atkin.
P of Reg : Liverpool

The Cambalu departed London on 4 April 1854 and arrived at Port Adelaide, South Australia on 8 July 1854. It left Port Adelaide on 19 August 1854. One reference states it was bound for for Iquique, Peru, a saltpeter port whilst another states it was headed for Liverpool.

Would anyone be able to advise of the port and return date of this ship to UK?

Thanks very much.
Neil Foley
