Depends on whether or not Ceres was written by the same person who wrote your mystery word. Have to admit I thought Caesar as soon as I saw it.

True the p in Pembroke and p in powerful are very different so could be quite possible

I agree the C is very different - but I can still only see Caesar now.

There was such a ship. (Although I realise that doesn't make it the correct name).
Might be worth checking the dates out to see if it fits with your reason for wanting to know the name.

I think it is Caesar and is indeed written by a different person to the ones above, the r is different as is the 5.
