Harriet (1836 ship)

Harriet was launched at Yarmouth in 1836. She burnt in 1842. 
"Harriet" entered "Lloyd's Register" ("LR") in 1836 with J. Somes, owner, and homeport of London.
Loss: On 19 April 1842 "Harriet", Beach, master, was almost finished loading at Calcutta, India, for her return voyage to Great Britain when at about 1p.m. she caught fire. She was carrying general cargo and saltpeter. The fire spread so rapidly Beach, his officers, and crew, had to jump overboard to save themselves. Her entry in "LR" for 1842 carries the annotation "burnt".
