I'm researching my wife's family tree and specifically the Parminter family. I have discovered the following in the Gloucester Journal December 1805 ... 'Swansea St.Mary Capt. Parminter of the brig "Mary" married Miss Richards of Swansea'. My wife's 4th Gt.Grandparents were Richard Parminter and Elizabeth Richards and they were both married in 1805 so this looks connected. What I would like to know is where I could find more information on Brigs vessels in/around Swansea St.Mary/Devon in the early 1800s and anywhere I could find registration information for these vessels and what they may have been carrying to and from this part of the country. The baptism record for his son, also called Richard, said he was a Master Mariner. Any pointers would be very helpful. Thanks
