Hi Gina,
Noted your other enquiry, - again from "Shipping Arrivals and Departures Sydney" by Ian Nicholson,on p.251 there is a Ship "Isabella" a barque of 580t, arrived on 18th October 1840 having sailed from Plymouth on 27/6/1840 with 335 Bounty Emigrants from Ireland, mainly farm workers.
Captain Stubbs, Surgeon Dr Williamson.
You could also try the Archives to view these shipping arrivals, probably more details there of those arriving.
Good luck,
Lynne.
