Biographical history

The 421 ton barque "Claribel" was built in Souris, Prince Edward Island, and registered in Charlottetown on 14 September 1876. The ship was owned by Samuel Cambridge Owens with the Master at that time being Peter Graham. The ownership changed several times in the following years. Registry closed on this ship in the Port of Charlottetown on 24 February 1894.

During a trip from Charlottetown to Hamilton, Bermuda, December 1890, with a shipment of potatoes, oats, horses, and other merchandise, the ship ran into bad weather. Official surveyors evaluated and reported on the subsequent damage. Some of the cargo had to be discharged and warehoused while repairs were undertaken.

Custodial history

Scope and content

The fonds consists of four Survey Reports by the Charlottetown Port Warden's Office, on the ship the "Claribel" between December 6, 1890 and March 11, 1891; a Notary Public's statement of May 1891 testifying to the contents of these reports; and an "Average Agreement" of June 1891 between the ship's Master John Walsh and several cargo owners that had goods aboard the "Claribel" during a voyage of December 1890.
