First Fleet section questions edit

Hi Acad Ronin. I wondered about keeping your recent addition here because of the other articles, and in my clumsiness on my tablet first reverted the wrong edit, then ended up leaving it there. Some of it could be usefully added to either or both of those articles, if you can provide the citation. However all that detail does need sourcing, and I have two questions about the first sentence. Did you mean to write Association, or were those enquiries to the Company? Also, that address, 7 John Street Adelphi - the only hit on Google was the Freemasons. (I'm sure more can be found via the SLSA link under Further reading, but I don't have time now.) Laterthanyouthink (talk) 02:59, 15 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Laterthanyouthink:, problem is, I got the paras from the article on Robert Clark Morgan. Unfortunately, they were unsourced. The reason I moved them to the SAC page was that they were general and would apply to all nine vessels that the SAC sent out, and were too general for the ship articles.

Ah, I see. Thanks for getting back to me so promptly. Hopefully I or someone else will eventually be able to source and copy/move, as appropriate! Regards Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:38, 15 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
