Further comments

Carlotta's ship, the "Papa" was found on https://www.geni.com/projects/Papa-ship-European-Settlers-to-South-Australia-1877/31777 . "ARRIVAL OF THE PAPA. Another shipload of German emigrants arrived by the Papa on Wednesday, July 25 1877, and, judging from appearances and the doctor's report, the people are likely to prove a most desirable addition to our population. There are mechanics of every kind, and agricultural and other laborers, all of whom are anxious to get to work. Dr. Feige on his second voyage in charge of immigrants, he having arrived home a few months back in a similar capacity. During the voyage everything possible has been done to keep the people in good health and spirits, and the result shows how well this has been accomplished. There are but 12 single women on board and 50 single men. The mid- ship section of the vessel is occupied by the married people with their families. The whole of the emigrants have arrived in good health, and beyond a couple of deaths amongst the children nothing has happened to mar the pleasure of the voyage.
