Talk:USS Alfred

Dates

Granted that someone constructed the dates originally as day month, it seems a bit jarring in an American article. Student7 (talk) 22:10, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

Lloyd's Register now available

I was just passing through, and noticed that Lloyd's Register is now available online for much of the period of lfred' s later life: https://hec.lrfoundation.org.uk/archive-library/lloyds-register-of-ships-online'. I can see the ship in the 1790 volume (page 17 on the Internet Archive version, Alfred - S - Delamore - 400 - Philad), but would need more time to figure out what the register actually means. :) 206.197.58.141 (talk) 11:15, 3 March 2025 (UTC) ' '

A quick check shows that she first appeared in 1784 (master Delamore/owner T. Seale), and was last recorded in 1795 (B. Bryan/J. Potts). I think the table in '95 says she was last surveyed in '94 in London, but her home port was Jamaica. I don't know how to tell if if she was lost, scrapped, or just renamed after that. 206.197.58.141 (talk) 11:31, 3 March 2025 (UTC)
