Biographical synthesis
John Bishopp (b. ca. ?; d. ?). Cooper.
Cooper on the ship the Hercules, which served as a man of war in the service of the Commonwealth in September to December 1652.
He was resident in Limehouse in the parish of Stepney in 1658.
Evidence from High Court of Admiralty
Forty-eight year old John Bishopp deposed on April 6th 1658 in the High Court of Admiralty.[1]
The case involved a dispute between Captain Zachary Browne, master of the Hercules, and her company, of whom Bishopp was one. The Hercules was a large ship of war, with a burthen of 400 to 450 tons, thirty-two guns and a sizeable crew. The ship ran aground near the Dutch fleet in December 1652 near Dungness. The captain wanted to engage part of the Dutch fleet, but allegedly his crew disobeyed his commands and boarded the ship's long boat, intending to abandon ship. As a result, the Hercules was captured by the Dutch.
