Although Lloyd's Register did not specify where Trelawney was sailing, Lloyd's List's ship arrival and departure data showed that she was trading with the West Indies, particularly Jamaica. In 1808 she arrived back at Liverpool from Jamaica with a cargo sugar, rum, cotton, coffee, sweatmeats, staves, and lime juice.
