Where did you get the year 1843 from ? I check a few
these things but couldnt find any ref to this ship arriving
presumably port of Sydney in that year.

It carried over 200 immigrants to Port Philip ( Melbourne)
in 1839 and there is ref to an arrival Sydney 18 Apr 1841 ,
dep London/ Ply 12 Dec 1840 ( vessels arriving Sydney
1840 -44 by Nicholson)

In the Log of Logs volumes there are a few refs to ships
named Neptune but none for any 1843 voyage .
