I had research done looking through the Liverpool Plantation Records for several ships, below is an email from Randy White, St.John's, Nfld from what he found at the Maritime History Archives
I have finished going through the Liverpool Plantation Records as requested by Joanne. The records cover a period from 1743 to 1784.
Joanne wanted the records checked for references to the following ships
Three Brothers
Belisarius
John Keats
Ranger/Northern Ranger
Prudence/Prudent
Belliste/cb Bellisle
Of the six ships there were no references except three for the same ship as follows:
A George Weston merchant of Minehead registered the ship "Three Brothers:" built in 1745 in North Yarmoth. The ships Master was listed as Thomas Frog. Dated 09 July 1762
A ship the "Three Brothers was registered for the Plantation Trade 02 Mar 1770. The master was listed as "Hugh Roberts"
A ship "Three Brothers was registered at Jamaica to a Richard Lake merchant of Kingston.The ship was formerly called the "Flying Fish" a square stern ship of 100 Tons. The master was listed as John Watson.
That ends the Liverpool Plantation Records research.Randy
