About Prince

Several vessels have been named Prince.Prince , of 52, or 56, or 70 tons (bm), was launched in 1785 at Liverpool, for the slave trader John Dawson. She first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR), in the issue for 1786 with Molineux, master, Dawson, owner, and trade Liverpool–Africa. Initially she may have served as a feeder vessel, trading captives on the African coast but without making the Middle Passage, i.e., without carrying captives from Africa to the West Indies. In 1790, Prince, James Hunter, master made her first voyage transporting enslaved people in the triangular trade. In 1790–1791 she made a second voyage transporting enslaved people. In 1791, Prince, Thomas Nixon, master, made a third voyage transporting enslaved people. She was lost in late 1792 or in 1793 homeward bound after she had landed her captives at Kingston, Jamaica.
