Letter of Marque question
« on: Wednesday 11 April 07 22:10 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know where I could find the letter of marque for Captain James Wenham of Hastings.  Granted him in the 1790s I think. "Hastings Saga" my MAN Marshall mentions it.

Thanks, Laverdiere

Hi Laverdiere

There are some registers of "letters of Marque" in class ADM 7 (Admiralty: Miscellanea) at the National Archives.
