Constantia was launched at Quebec City in 1822. She started trading between Quebec and Bristol but was lost on 13 May 1823. Constantia, Davie, master, was wrecked on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. All on board were rescued and part of the cargo was expected to be saved. She was on a voyage from Bristol to Quebec City.[2] On 14 October Emperor Alexander, Watt, master, arrived at Quebec. She brought with her the remainder of Constantia's stores and cargo after she had wrecked upon Cape Breton.[3]
