Chambers (ship)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Several vessels have been named Chambers:

  • Chambers (1776 ship) was launched in Bristol in 1776. She spent most of her brief career as a West Indiaman. An American privateer captured her in October 1782.
  • Chambers (1781 ship) was launched in America in 1781, possibly under the same name. Chambers first appeared in Lloyd's Register in 1783. She traded between Liverpool and Africa, but is not listed as a slave ship. She foundered in 1792.
  • Chambers (1794 ship) was launched at Liverpool in 1794. She was lost in 1795 as she was returning to Liverpool from Jamaica.
