General History:
22/10/1823:
On 11 October, sloop ANN MCKENZIE, Alex McKenzie master, with valuable cargo of fruit from Malaga, came on shore on the rocks near Bondicar, Northumberland, and will become a total wreck. Greater part of cargo landed.
(Aberdeen Journal)

Note: ANN MCKENZIE remains in Lloyd's underwriters until 1831 but is not shown as surveyed since 1823, so it is likely that these are ghost entries. Other than the change to Leith coaster in 1824 her details remain consistent and as she was supposedly wrecked on the east coast this change of her location had to have occurred before her loss and so just represents a late update from Lloyd's, though "Lh Coaster" slips to "Eh Coaster" in her last year this can be dismissed as a typo.
