Biographical synthesis
John Comin (alt. Comyn) (b. ca. 1632; d. ?). Shipwright.
"Hee this deponent is by trade a shipp carpenter".[1]
Resided in 1657 in Wapping Wall in the parish of Stepney.
Evidence from High Court of Admiralty
Twenty-five year old John Comin deposed on April 13th 1657 in the High Court of Admiralty. He was examined on a libel on behalf of Matson in the case of "Matson against Naylor".[2]
John Comin stated that in May 1656 he was asked by Elizabeth Matson to view and repair a lighter called the Ellen and Anne. Elizabeth Matson was then and still is the owner of the lighter. The lighter had been damaged by a ship running foul of her near New Crane in the River Thames. Comin reported that he and other carpenters who viewed her found her to be "very much bruised and crushed both in her outwards and inward workes and diverse of her futtocks and navel tymbers broken downe". John Comin helped repair the damage. Supposedly the lighter was a new lighter, not more than two to three years old, and had been a staunch and strong vessel before she was damaged.[3]
