About This Item
July 1863-March 1864. A set of six financial documents relating to two ships. The barque Texas and the barque Alamo were owned by Oliver H. Perry, a shipping merchant from Southport, Connecticut. The Texas was lost at sea in late 1862 while serving the Union cause during the American Civil War. Five of the six documents report Perry’s earnings on the ships. These are from Connecticut shipping company Wakeman, Dimon & Co., who operated Perry’s ships. The sixth letter is from the Atlantic Insurance Company. It concerns Perry’s insurance policies on the ships. The documents are in very good condition overall with folds.
