I wrote another blog entry on David Howes and the link to that is embedded in the above entry, if you haven't already seen it. I know that Nehemiah was a sea Captain as well; I have a little bit of info on him I could share with you. My email is listed in the top left side of this blog.

With some online search I came across your blog. <br />I did find a link to the Cooke & Warren (Mayflower) lineage to the maternal lines of my great-grandmother Madeline Howes but am interested in finding the accuracy of her great-great-grandfather David Howes. <br />I currently live in New Bedford, MA; downtown and few blocks from The Custom House that you mentioned in your blog but I am not sure what records are still kept there since they remodeled the building last year. <br />Would look forward in chatting with you.

So your thoughts on David being too young may be inaccurate. Depending on the tonnage of the ships served on dictates what his license allows. One can actually work his way up to a very large ship in his lifetime. I worked my way up from 50 ton to 100 ton in just a couple of years.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01946093080111568099noreply@blogger.com
