Talk:Lady Jane Dundas (1800 EIC ship)

Namesake
I don't know why the article says this ship is named after Jane Gordon, Duchess of Gordon. The duchess's maiden name was Maxwell. It's far more likely to have been named after Lady Jane, daughter of John Hope, 2nd Earl of Hopetoun and second wife of Henry Dundas, who was President of the Board of Control from 1793 to 1801.
