San Francisco: The ship was lost 4 years after her journey: February 8, 1854 (from the Annals of San Francisco). Loss of the clipper ship San Francisco, from New York to this port (San Francisco). The clipper ship San Francisco, 106 days from New York, was wrecked in coming into San Francisco the 5th of February. The consignees abandoned the ship to the underwriters, and she was sold at auction, together with the cargo, with the exception of a portion which was stored between decks, and brought the sum of $12,500. The ship records were also lost in a fire, so I can find little on it.
