You information is wrong, as usual. Try "The Slaveship Wanderer" by Tom Henderson Wells. The Wanderer was launched in 1857 as a yacht for J.D. johnson of Louisiana. It was sold in 1858 to W.C. Corrie of Charleston, and his associates Charles A. L. Lamar of Savannah and Nelson C. Trowbridge of New Orleans. Converted to the slave trade, Wanderer left Charleston on July 3, 1858 and sailed to Trinidad. She left there July 27, 1858 and sailed to the west coast of Africa. After crossing the Atlantic, Wanderer entered the Congo River on 16 September. She took on board some 500 blacks, in spite of an epidemic of yellow fever in the area, and sailed for North America on October 18. She was briefly chased by USS Vincennes as she left the mouth of the river but not caught. At the end of a six-week voyage in which many of the captives died, Wanderer arrived at Jekyll Island on November 28, 1858 and delivered her slaves. From first to last a southern effort.
