George Culliford was a passenger on the "Monteagle", arriving April 1853. The "Monteagle", under James Lorby (Master), was a sailing ship of 999 tons, licensed to carry up to 427 passengers. It sailed from Deptford (Debtford), a dock and ship-building facility on the Thames, London, on 21 December 1852, and arrived in Melbourne on 12 April 1853. The Unassisted Passengers included a George Culliford age 32, an agricultural labourer, and a Hannah Culliford aged 34, both from Somerset, England. Both could read and write and gave C of E as their religious affiliation. They went ashore "on own account" to Melbourne. This George Culliford would have been born in about 1820.
