Documents relating to Ferryland: 1597 to 1726
1693; Joseph Buckley
extract from "Ledger 1693"
Peabody Museum, Salem Massachusetts,
Acc, 16, 100, f. 51-53.
MHA microfilm. Transcribed by P.E. Pope.
Subjects: New England, material culture, imports, cod, planters.
[Buckley's ledger for the voyage of
four ships to Newfoundland contains the account for many planters.
Unfortunately locations are not given, though some locations can be
reconstructed by analysis, since the ledger appears to be a
chronological record of the coasting voyage of his vessels. On the
basis of surnames recorded in 1681 and 1708, the following entries
probably relate to Ferryland. Cross references to other accounts are
omitted.]
