Jenny (schooner)
The ''Jenny'' was an alleged English schooner and the subject of an unproven legend. The story goes that the Jenny became frozen in an ice-barrier of the Drake Passage in 1823, only to be rediscovered in 1840 by a whaling ship, the bodies aboard being preserved by the Antarctic cold. The original report has been deemed "unsubstantiated".
The earliest known source for the story appears to be an anonymous article in an 1862 edition of ''Globus'', a popular German geographical magazine.〔
==Account==
The supposed account describes how the ship left its home port of the Isle of Wight in 1822.〔 (Translated from Globus, Bd 1, 1862, p60 - 61)〕 The ship was discovered frozen in ice in the Drake Passage by a Captain Brighton of the whaler ''Hope'' in September 1840.〔 The log had been entered until 17 January 1823.〔 The last port of call had been Callao, near Lima, Peru.〔 Brighton took the logbook with him in order to return it to the shipowners.〔
