I am currently researching the Blackwall Madagascar shipwreck that occurred in 1853. The research is taking place due to the discovery of an unidentified shipwreck off the coast of Ceará - Brazil - South America. We also obtained some pieces that link the wreckage directly to Australia. If anyone has information and wants to participate in the research, please send me a message.

Yes! Several publications cite the coast of Brazil as the probable location of the disappearance.We are a team of researchers made up of land and underwater archaeologists, historians and documentary producers. After an investigation into a wreckage, we found many things linked to Australia, which led us to research. We have several pieces already identified by year and origin, they are English and Australian pieces. We also carried out a dive to measure the shipwreck and some measurements are identical. We may be close to solving this mystery.

Welcome to Tnet.

You sure have some interesting finds, but I don’t think they’re from the Blackwall frigate Madagascar, lost in 1853.

The other potentially dateable artefacts might well be consistent with that date, but I believe the ‘John Moreton & Co.’ spoon is not.

Although the company was originally founded in 1838 in Wolverhampton, England it was originally named ‘Moreton & Langley’ (after John Moreton and John Langley). As far as I’m aware, they didn’t change name to ‘John Moreton & Co.’ until 1868 (15 years after the Madagascar was lost) when Moreton had sole control after Langley’s death.

Sou muito grato pela sua atenção. Quanto ao artigo de John Moreton, posso explicar.
These pieces were found in an area where the shipwrecked sailors or some looters took the pieces from Madagascar. They do not belong to the batch of material already studied and identified. Do you have an email address so I can send you a book we published here about our work?

Estas peças foram encontradas em uma área de onde os náufragos ou alguns saqueadores as levaram de Madagascar. Elas não pertencem ao lote de material já estudado e identificado. Você tem um endereço de e-mail para que eu possa lhe enviar um livro que publicamos aqui sobre o nosso trabalho?

Bem-vindo à Tnet.

Você certamente tem algumas descobertas interessantes, mas não acho que sejam da fragata Blackwall Madagascar, perdida em 1853.

Os outros artefatos potencialmente datáveis podem muito bem ser consistentes com essa data, mas acredito que a colher 'John Moreton & Co.' não é.

Embora a empresa tenha sido fundada em 1838 em Wolverhampton, Inglaterra, seu nome original era "Moreton & Langley" (em homenagem a John Moreton e John Langley). Pelo que sei, a empresa só mudou seu nome para "John Moreton & Co." em 1868 (15 anos após o naufrágio do Madagascar), quando Moreton assumiu o controle total após a morte de Langley.
Thank you for your attention. This John Moreton piece is outside the artifacts we believe to be from the Madagascar Shipwreck. The photographed material was collected at a location close to the wreck where we believe That some shipwrecked people or looters took a lot of things to land. We studied a lot about the route, the cargo and the crew. If you send me your email I can send you a book about our work here in Brazil. Sorry for any mistakes, I use a translator from

OK... but your post identified the spoon as "beginning of the 19th Century" (which it isn't) and inferred that it came from the wreck. Thanks for the offer of the book, but I have more than enough reading material awaiting my attention already.
