Slaver Ships.

The are a lot family researchers out there that had ancestors that owned a ship or was in command of a ship that deal in the slave trade but never know it. You may have known this but never know the name of the ship. Then there are those that my have known the name of the ship but never know what it was used for, well this page may be a help to you. I will list the names of Slaver Ships and as many owners and captains as I can.
------------------------------------------------------

The slave trade was big business for a lot of foreign nations and There seem to be no way of stopping it. Although there were treaty’s among the nations that prevented the trading of slaves there were those who would find lop holes in the laws and us it against them. One of the bigger nations to deal in the slave trade was Cuba. It had a law where slave could be brought in as long as they were apprentices. Now Cuba had some what of a blind eye to the slaves, when they were brought into port under ( apprentices ) the captain would have to pay a duty on the cargo. After the cargo ( Slaves ) were sold to the Town and those in cities and the Plantations the owners would have too have them registered by law with tickets or certificates, the cost for these tickets and certificates was twelve and a half cents to one dollar each. There were some captains that were unwilling to pay the duty’s and would try to smuggle them in.

The United States was the biggest suppliers of slave ship the companies of these ships may or may not have known what their ships were being used for, for once the ship was sold many could care less what the ship was used for, building and selling ships was big business. There were always schemes to get these ships, for if the port authorities found they were to be used in the slave trade they wouldn’t let the ship leave port. The way the schemed worked was a agent would come to a port like New York or Boston. There the agents would make a deal with the owner. The owner would take on a legal cargo get clearance and would sail under the flag of the United States. When in the open sea the ships title would be transferred to the new owner.

When they got to their port the cargo would be unloaded and the pass owner would get off and head back too home port. The captain may or may not know what was going on. They would take on passengers and maybe some new crew men then leave port. Once in open sea the captain would be ordered to head for the African coat, now if the captain was in on it there was no problem. But when a captain won’t go along, one of the new crewmen or one of the passengers taken on board at the last port would take over, as they were all in the scheme, the captain would be either put in irons or killed. If he was lucky he and what part of the crew didn’t do along would be put over board and sent adrift.

Because a lot of the slaver ships sailed under the United States flag, this would cause trouble for the merchant ships, although many of these ships caused their own problems themselves. The British ships were always on the look out for slavers, and if they came upon a ship that they thought was suspicious they would tell them to lean-to and be boarded. But many would run. There were many reasons why they would run they may be outfitted for slave trade or they maybe sailing under a unregistered flag, Many of the captains were owners of the ship they sailed, and although he may not have done anything wrong he would take a chance and run. The captain know that if a British patrol or any other patrol stopped him and even thro everything was in order the patrol could take his ship as a prize, and by the time it was all settled in the courts many months would have passed and he would be in financial ruin, so he would run but in most cases to no avail.

CONSULATE GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES.
Havana, July 9, 1858.

A register was issued by the custom-house of New York to the brig C. Perkins, of that port, on the 28th day of September, 1857 ; George Brown, of the city of New York, appearing as sole owner and as master. No certificate appears indorsed or attached to her register showing any change of commander. Her description is as follows : Built at Canwaboro’, South Carolina, in 1854; length, 99 feet; breadth, 24 feet 8 inches; depth, 8 feet 1 inch ; tonnage, l76-tons; square stern ; no galleries, and a billet-head. I understand, however, that she has a figure-head—the figure of a man with a black coat. The register now in my possession bears all the evidence of being a genuine document.

She sailed from this port on or about the 26th of November, 1857; cleared ostensibly for St. Thomas, laden with rum, and it appears, from the evidence I have obtained, that she proceeded to Africa and engaged in the slave trade. As to the shipping articles and crew list of the vessel, the following are the names appearing thereupon:

George Brown, master.
J. S. Downing, mate, of New York.
Gabriel Domingoes, cook and steward, New Orleans.
G. W. Gordon, 2d mate, New York.
Charles McKenney, seaman, Massachusetts.
John Wilson, seaman, New York.
Charles W. Paul, seaman, New Jersey.
Charles Coffin, seaman, Maine.
William Jones, seaman, New Orleans.
Thomas Brown, seaman, New York.
