Glenburnie was launched in Prince Edward Island in 1840.

On 27 July 1843 Glenburnie collided with Lochlibo and foundered in the Atlantic Ocean.

However, the entry for Glenburnie in the 1843 volume of Lloyd's Register carries the annotation "Run down".

It reported that Lochliboo had run down Glenburnie, of Bideford, on 26 July, near "Cape de Montez".

She sank almost immediately, but her crew was saved and brought to Bridgewater.
