Ann,
Thank you so much. Things that I would be looking for would be anything with respect to Frederick, but in particular:
-Any writings/correspondence from the period 1842-4, especially any reference to the 'Success';
-Any info respecting his business operations in Western Australia;
-Anything that would provide a clue as to who the figurehead on the 'Success' represents. (This was added to the ship with Mangles purchased it in 1842.)
-Info on the existence of a portrait of Frederick or his wife. (See previous item - it may be possible to compare her portrait to pictures of the figurehead to see if it is her.)
Otherwise, any new info on Frederick would be useful. Good luck with all your efforts.
Kind regards,
Richard
