Transcribed
from Notes made by Alf Jenkins (author of
The Scillonian and His Boat)
Some writing
is not at all easy to read and so there may be errors on my part.
Although Alf
Jenkins’ pages are numbered continuously, there is a gap of ships not having
been registered between 1872 and 1911.
Others are
described in the Ships Built on the Isles of Scilly pages.
Note Registry
entries here, under fates, continue up until 1900.
