Career
Minerva first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR), in 1813.
On 4 March 1818 a gale on the coast of England drove a number of vessels on shore. Minerva, Strachan, master, was driven on shore back of the West Pier Head at Ramsgate. She was on her way from London to Demerara. She was gotten off and taken into port on 8 March. On 28 April she sailed from Ramsgate for Demerara
Fate
On 14 May 1820, Captain Morgan, of the brig Minerva, from Liverpool, arrived at Quebec City with her crew in her boats. She had struck some rocks the evening before in the Saint Lawrence River at the head of the Traverse, about 18 nautical miles (33 km) south of the port, when she had let go her anchors. Captain Morgan, the pilot and the crew took to her boats and headed for the shore. They watched her fill with water and sink at about 11pm.
