"In April 1810 she served on the China station under Captain Francis Austen"

Where is the evidence for this? (He mentions "China ships" in his later written memoir). Indeed, the China station was only created in 1865 according to Wikipedia. His brother, Charles John Austen, was Commander of the East Indies and China Station from January 1850 until his death in October 1852. https://www.pdavis.nl/ShowCommanders.php#A60 CatNip48 (talk) 14:55, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
