William Chamlett (alt. Chamlet) the younger (b.ca.1633; d.?). Mariner and Master's Mate of the ''Peter and Anne''.

Resident in 1655 in the parish of Saint Botolph Billingsgate.

==Evidence from High Court of Admiralty==
Twenty-two year old William Chamlett the younger was one of three deponents on January 13th 1655 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was one of the master's mates of the ship the ''Peter and Anne''. He deposed alongside his father, William Chamlett, of Redriff in Surrey, who was the fifty-five year old master or commander of the same ship, and thirty year old Henry Turpin, of Wapping, who was the other master's mate of the ''Peter and Anne''.<ref>[[HCA 13/70 f.51r Annotate|HCA 13/70 f.51r]]</ref>

Chamlett the younger, his father and his fellow mate Henry Turpin attested to dreadful weather conditions on their return voyage from the Canaries to London. They describe their ship as of the burthen of four score tons and being laden with "hides, ginger, sugar, logwood and
shumack which shee tooke in at the Iland of Palma." Departing the Canaries on DEcember 11th 1654, they experienced a violent storm off Cape Finisterre fifteen days later. The storm lasted a full sixteen days until they brought the ship into the Downs. They attested to their diligence in saving the ship, and stated that any damage to the merchandise was unavoidable.<ref>[[HCA 13/70 f.51r Annotate|HCA 13/70 f.51r]]</ref>

The letters of the London merchant John Paige make frequent mention in 1654 of the ship the ''Peter and Anne'' and her captain, William or Mr Chamlett (alt. Chamlet). Paige had hired the ship to go from London to Teneriffe to collect wine. In a letter sent by Paige to William Clerke, dated April 1st 1654, Paige writes:

:"I have this day freighted a pretty new frigate [the Peter and Anne, Capt. William Chamlett] of 80 ts, 10 guns, to go from hence to Tenerife and so home at £5 per t, and with much entreaty. In which vessel I shall charge you with 40 ts for your account; the rest Antonio Fernandez Carvajal takes. Which vessel, I conceive, will be ready within 15 days, but it will be a very difficult thing to get her out in these vexatious times."<ref>[http://www.british-history.ac.uk/london-record-soc/vol21/pp99-119 Item 83. Letter from John Paige to William Clerke, 1 April 1654], in 'Letters: 1654', in The Letters of John Paige, London Merchant, 1648-58, ed. G F Steckley (London, 1984), pp. 99-119. British History Online http://www.british-history.ac.uk/london-record-soc/vol21/pp99-119, viewed 05/08/2016</ref>
The elder William Chamlett deposed a second time in the High Court of Admiralty three and a half years later on July 31st 1658. He was examined on an allegation in the case of "Blake against Page". His residence was unchanged, being Rederiff in Sirrey, and again he is described as master of the ''Peter and Anne''. Mystifyingly, he has lost five years in age, and is now reported to be fifty years of age.<ref>[[HCA 13/72 f.441r Annotate|HCA 13/72 f.441r]]</ref>
