During earlier Colonial American Times, many ships were owned by
individuals as opposed to shipping companies. Is there a possibility of
there being any records of these ships? One in particular I am looking for
is The Ship "Loyalty" in the late 1600s ~ early 1700s, owned by Henry Brown,
reputed to have had holdings in Chester County. Is there any records of
these smaller ships? If so, where can I find some information on these
vessels.

Mary,
I too am very interested in any information on this subject. My ancestor
Henry Brown/e settled in Burlington County, New Jersey. His son-in-law,
Francis Davenport was in Burlington County also about 1680. I have not been
able to find them on any ships. Also looking for Gervas Hall, son-in-law of
Francis Davenport who we believe may have come over on his own ship. Or
maybe they all came over together?? I would be interested in where you
learned about Henry Brown and his holdings in Chester Co., Pa,.
Thanks, Bob McKeon
