Hello Westoe

The details which come from his master Certificate show him as Thomas Huntley Brown he was a Mate on the Friendship in 1834, and Master 1835, 1836, 1837.

My objective is to find an average sailing time from London to Baltic's hopefully this will allow me to tie down some other loose ends.

I am satisfied with his maritime history.

Thanks to the suggestions I have pin pointed the lLiverpool run etc.

No to early for him he was 1835/36/37

Main interest is tying down average sailing times as opposed to voyages

Thanks

The area mostly sailed by the master in question states Baltic so may not be Denmark.

Was a sailing ship I believe a trader perhaps carrying timber.

London was port of register of the ship "Friendship" master Brown and I suspect he sailed out of there and take the point on Liverpool.

Thanks
