>Was there, or is there, a registry for ships (port authority records,
ownership records, insurance records, loss claim records, etc.) that sailed
the Great Lakes in the time period of 1850-1870 (particularly out of
Detroit, where he lived)? Something that would connect Capt. Nicholas
Atwood's name with a particular ship would be most helpful. Family
tradition has it that he may have been part owner.

Kathy,

The customs records metioned on the Downward Bound site on the Resource page at:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~migls/resources.html

There is a message by Brendon Baillod with information on where these lists
are at.

Those would definately connect a name with a ship.

Have a good one.

Pat
