Journal kept by William Edward Mayes as master of the KEWADIN
Journal kept by William Edward Mayes as master of the brig KEWADIN (1866), owned by John Bloom of Folkestone, covering voyages to Pernambuco and Aracaju in Brazil, and Memel in the Baltic, between December 1877 and January 1879. This is a handwritten journal written after the voyages took place. It provides an interesting insight into a sailing ship carrying bulk cargo during the 1870s.
