Themes
The following topics are currently being explored by the MarineLives project team in parallel with transcription work.
Each link will take you to a page which will introduce a topic and list a set of potential references in HCA 13/71, giving the title of the case and deposition, as well as a reference number. Electronic links are being added which will take you directly to the relevant transcription and manuscript image in MarineLives-Transcript/Scripto.
You are invited to explore these themes and to add your own comments and references as you browse HCA 13/71 online. You are also welcome to add your suggestions as to other relevant primary and secondary material, with the focus being on the 1650s.
