Week Three goals
In the third week of the MarineLives Summer Transcription Programme we will:
(1) Review and edit the transcriptions done by each team member in week two
(2) Discuss tricky words and expressions team members have come across
(3) Do a further two pages of transcription each, this week chosen both from HCA 13/68
(4) Develop search strategies to find and synthesise material on the Three Silver Ships project
One to One calls to be held with each team member
Colin will set up 1:1 calls with each team member lasting roughly 30 minutes each to review week two transcriptions, to discuss palaeographical issues, and to explore search strategies for the Three Silver Ships project

Week three transcription

Search strategies for the Three Silver Ships project
To search the wiki, enter search terms in the search box at the top RH corner of any wiki page
(1) Look for information about key people
For example:
Christian Cloppenburgh - master of the ship the Salvadore
Otto George - master of the ship the Sampson
Write a short profile of a person, based upon your research
For example, the rather wonderful Magdalena Hendricks - Dutch born witness for the Commonwealth
William Astell, a former military man (and surgeon) fallen on hard times, and also a witness for the Commonwealth
(2) Look for information about key ships
Remember that spelling variants exist
For example: the Salvador and the Salvadore
(3) Look for information about key places mentioned in the case
For example; Lubeck, Hamburg, Cadiz, Ostend, Amsterdam, Woolwich
Remember that spelling variants exist
