My ggg grandfather Nathaniel C Harris was the Captain of this ship which although not listed here took many emigrants from Europe to the USA sailing from Liverpool via Ireland from 1854 - 1863. He was Captain 1856/1857 later moving to the Williams and Guion line with the Dakota and Minnesota.
Any information on the ship or Captain Harris would be of interest. He died aboard the Wisconsin in 1873
Regards
Vaughan
