Talk:HMS Thrush (1806)

Thrush in Mansfield Park
I think we need a source for the suggestion that Jane Austen might have seen the Thrush fitting out in 1808 and deliberately chosen it as William Price's ship. William's earlier ship in Mansfield Park is the HMS Antwerp, which was a made-up name. It's quite possible that she meant Thrush to be fictitious as well. David (talk) 15:34, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
