*new* for TheShipsList website http://www.theshipslist.com/ All the new and updated files and databases have been placed on their own page(s) Find them on the front page in between the big arrows --------------> <--------------- At the bottom of each of these pages I have placed links named " previous month " and " next month " so you are able to navigate back and forth between the monthly *new & updated* pages, as I only keep three months of *new* page links on the Home page. New for September 2006 is . . . o Accounts: o Impressions of New Orleans, 1853 This is the item which Harry posted to TSL a while ago and has given permission to republish on TheShipsList website. I have added a picture of the port New Orleans 1852 to illustrate, however it was not original to the New York Times article. o Fleets new: o Horn Line with subsidiaries o Compañia Trasmediterránea fully updated Two more great Fleets for TheShipsList website. Technically the Spanish Compañia Trasmediterránea isn't "new" for us, but it grew from just five ships listed to about 170. o Passengers: o Lady Sherbrooke - 7th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 10th June 1826 o Lady Sherbrooke - 8th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 18th June 1826 o Lady Sherbrooke - 9th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 25th June 1826 o Lady Sherbrooke - 10th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 29th June 1826 o Lady Sherbrooke - 11th trip up, Quebec to Montreal, 4th July 1826 Five more Lady Sherbrooke steamboat lists. Although I have suspected that some may have "worked passage" on the steamboats, from Quebec to Montreal, I have just begun to see the notations. eg. on June 10th 1826 25 William Scott x x -/10/- no money, worked [passage] 26 — McDeverick x x -/10/- no money, worked [passage] I often see "had no more" money notations for people who usually leave something as a "pledge" to pay in the future. I've seen bundles ; luggage ; chests ; bandbox ; Beaver hat ; gloves ; Watches ; guns ; coats ; kedge anchors ; tools ; umbrella ; silver spoons & bed curtains ; feather bed ; pocketbook ; flute, to name just a few. I often wonder whether they do all pay, because I don't always see added notes about the monies paid on a certain date and the pledge item crossed off the list, although I have seen some. Please share this *new* for TheShipsList website email, with any other list to which you belong if you think it might be of interest or value to those list members (in other words, on-topic). Enjoy !
