'''Navy Records.''' The earliest surviving navy records are from 1617. Ships' logs survive from 1673, but usually only give information on ship location, weather, sightings of other ships, and shipboard events. While descriptions of shipboard events often include individual names, no indexes exist to help locate these names. | '''Navy Records.''' The earliest surviving navy records are from 1617.
