[TSL] Two ships: UNITY and JOHN & SARAH
Rich and Dee Kelly <richkelly@sprintmail.com> on 12/30/1997


Hello,

I'm trying to locate some information on two ships:

The UNITY departed London about Nov 11, 1650 and landed in Boston around Jan 1651. The ship was purported to hold Scottish prisoners from the Battle of Dunbar. Is there a passenger list anywhere for this voyage?

JOHN & SARAH, departed Downes about Dec 8, 1651, landing in Boston, Massachusetts before Feb 24, 1652. This ship purportedly held Scottish prisoners of the Battle of Worcester.

I have an ancestor who appears in NH in 1656 owning property. Later in life he claimed to have been a Scottish prisoner. It's possible he may be traced to one of those voyages. Any idea on where to track down this info?

Thanks,

--
