^{Fifeshire 01·02·1842}

On her maiden voyage, Fifeshire carried several notable settlers: John Kerr, farmer, who ploughed the first field in Nelson town, Alfred Saunders, miller. Upon leaving port the Fifeshire ran aground on Arrow Rock on 27^th February and in the process breaking her back. It was four years before the remains were removed. Several small ships were constructed from her timbers but no record of them has been found. Other than the Captain’s megaphone and a chair supposedly made from the ship nothing else remains.
