The Pims, successful Irish Quakers, also owned the barques N eptune and Collina . J W Pim, the owner of this vessel in 1868, resided at Myrtle Grove, once the home of Sir Walter Raleigh and still extant in Youghal (O’Brien). Captain William Dalton became Master in 1855 before the ship’s registration moved from the Port of Waterford to the Port of Youghal in 18 57 and the ownership to J Pim (Lloyd’s). Documentation of that move in CLIP is delayed until 1864. He next captained Try Again of Cork in 1865, prior to returning to N ancy of Waterford in 1866 (IMNCL). Mate Timothy Bowen who briefly served as captain of Henry in 1870, was boatswain on Countess of Durham for trans- atlantic voyaging and therefore is listed here as a mate. * IMNCL; Lloyd’s; UK M&M; Slater’s National Commercial Directory, 1881; Bourke, Shipwrecks of the Irish Coast ; O’Brien, Youghal vessels in 1860 (online resource: see Bibliography)
