Descript 1 microfilm reel.
Note Title on reel container label: NOSL for Georgia, 1752-1767.
Originally published 1967.
The Navigation Acts required colonial officials to keep records of shipping that entered and left ports in America. The naval officer, who was the clerk of the naval office in each province, gathered lists of shipping and sent them to London approximately every three months. The lists include the date of entry or clearance from port, the ship's name, home port or colony, style of construction and tonnage, registration, name of master, and name of owner. They also describe the number of guns and crew, the cargo (including slaves and indentures), the last port of clearance, the immediate destination, and the date and location where bond may have been posted. Georgia is situated on the Atlantic coast and Savannah, its major port, was a centre for overseas trade during the eighteenth century. This trade was based primarily on cotton, but silk, indigo, tobacco, rice, timber, and timber products were all exported through Georgia's ports. An introduction at the beginning of the reel contains the provenance of the lists, background on naval officers and the shipping lists, information specifically about Georgia shipping lists for the ports of Savannah and Sunbury, a summary of the lists, and a bibliography of related works.
