MEMORIAL'S MARITIME HISTORY GROUPIn the early 1700's, Gregory

Whitten and several friends from theDevonshire village of Dawlish, Eng.land, booked passage on a GrandBanks fishing vessel each spring andsailed to St. John's, Newfoundland.

Whitten was a by-boat keeper, askipper who kept a fishing boat inNewfoundland year-round, operatingout of St. John's during the summermonths and wintering in England. Hisfriends served as his crew.

It was probably Whitten's grand.son who decided.to take up permanentresidence in St. John's, so the Whittenfamily set up house on grandfatherGregory's fishing plantation on theSouthside of St. John's harbour. Theirdescendants are still there.

Gregory Whitten is one of manythousands of persons on fite in therecords of the Maritime History Groupestablished two-and-a-half years ago atMemorial University. Dr. Keith Mat·thews of the History Departmentheads up the Group and says the namefile is invaluable for a wide range ofhistorical research purposes.

"We've constructed a very bigcollection of files on people," says Dr.Matthews, "people who were involvedin any way with Newfoundland before1840. What we do in fact is we takeout all the information that we canfind on any particular person, put iton a slip and then file it under thename of that person,"

While the name file representsmuch research and documentation, itis only a part of the work being doneby the Group,

The general aim of the MaritimeHistory Group is to organize andencourage research into documentsand materials concerned with the his·tory of shipping, trade and fisheries,The documents gathered relate tothree broad areas of study: Newfound­land, the fisheries, and shipping andtrade.

"Of these our biggest collectionis the collection of shipping recordsthat we got from England," Dr, Mat­thews says, "This is about three milesof records of crew lists. agreementsand official Jog-books of all the shipswhich were in the British mercantilemarine, which includes of course

places like Canada and Newfoundland,in the period between 1861 and1913,"

Included in the collection arecopies of Colonial shipping registries, acomplete run of the English Customsledgers for the 18th century, "wreckregistries" and general shipping re­cords.

The Fisheries documents con·centrate on the Newfound land fish·eries, especially on the records of theNewfoundland Associated Fish Ex­porters limited. The time periodranges from 1500 to the present. Inaddition, there are documents pertain­ing to the fisheries in Britain andmainland Canada from 1700 to thepresent,

The third and perhaps most ex·tensive collection of materials is theone devoted to Newfoundland. Asidefrom the name file, there is a largecollection of student research reportsdone during normal course work inNewfoundland history, These cover awide range of topics including com·munity history studies, shipping, fish-

eries, local government and healthservices,

An important part of this col­lection are the microfilmed: and pho­tocopied facsimiles of documentswhich relate to the history of New·foundland before 1840, The originalsof these documents are kept mainly inBritain, although some are to be foundin France and the United States,

Says Dr. Matthews: "None ofthese documents were available inNewfoundland because before 1840little record-keeping was done here,"

This basic research source for allstudies of Newfoundland history "in­cludes an enormous collection of over200 volumes of data on all aspects ofour history. A calendar of lhe moreimportant records for the volumes upto 1820 has been prepared and it ishoped to eventually calendar the en·tire collection."

"At the moment," Dr. Matthewsadds, "we've got a very large collectionof 18th century records connectedwith Newfoundland trades or trades inwhich Newfoundland was very impor-

tanto And of course we've got a tre·mendous amount of information onthe west of England shipping andtrade, since it was from the west ofEngland shipping and trade of the17th and 18th centuries that New­foundland came into existence."

The collection includes a com­plete list of Newfoundland ships of theperiod, with details of the ships'owners, captains, construction, activoities, voyages and fate.

The Maritime History Grouptries to accommodate public interestas much as it can, but lack of adequatespace and a busy academic schedule

The day is long past when anycountry can afford to exploit its ma­rine resources without extensive reosearch into the effects such exploi·tation will have. This opinion wasexpressed by Dr. David Sergeaunt atthe Biology Department's first seminarfor the Winter Semester.

Dr. Sergeaunt, who spent severalyears in Newfoundland and has goneto the ice on sealing ships four times,is now working with the FisheriesResearch Board of Canada in theArctic Biological Station at Ste. Annede Bellevue, Quebec.

Through his work with seals, Dr.Sergeaunt has classified the statistics

make it a little difficult. However,enquiries are welcomed.

There .e also many ongoingresearch projects being carried out bythe Group, including a study of the St.John's "merchantocracy" and an ana·lysis of Newfoundland in 1832, on theeve of attaining representative govern·ment.

Recently, Dr. Matthews wasnamed the first chairman of the Archi­val Association of Atlantic Canada, afour·province co·operative aimed atencouraging interest and expertise inthe history of the Atlantic provinces.The A.A.A.C. hopes to do this by

of survival over a number of years andplotted it against the number of ani·mals taken by sealers. He calls this a"survival index" and shows how alarge number of seals killed will notonly affect the immediate herd butwill affect the birth rate four or fiveyears later, when these seals whichwere killed, would have reproduced.

With a tagging programme(which has now been replaced bybranding since it was found that sealslost their tags after two or three yearslit has been established that the sealherd in the Gulf and the herd at theFrant are not, in fact, two separateentities. The animals intermingle fromyear to year more or less, dependingon ice conditions.

During the last few years thehunt in the Gulf has come to an end."I feel it is quite appropriate that weconsider the gulf as a sanctuary", saidDr. Sergeaunt. However he would notlike to see the Canadian sealing indus·try disappear. "The seals that arekilled are only now beginning to beused to their full potential - with aworld hungry for protem I think thatthe meat of the seal will become morevaluable,"

The International Commissionfor the North West Atlantic Fisherieshas set a quota of l5D·thousand on thenumber of seals that can be killed eachyear, The quota is divided betweenNorway and Canada with the Canadianquota subdivided into GO·thousand forships and 3Q.thousand for landsmen.Dr. Sargeaunt feels that this quota,which is about half the yearly birthrate, will keep the seal safe fromextinction.

6upgrading archives and increasing pu!).lie use of their services.

But MemOfial's Maritime HistoryGroup remains Dr. Matthews' primaryconsideration.

"One of the Group's biggestjobs," he says, "is to continue to huntfor early Newfoundland stuff in ob­scure places and then collect it alltogether here. For the future we en­visage a continuing growth in all thefunctions of the Group: in the acquisi·tion of materials, the organization andaccession of that material, assistingand encouraging the research of othersand the continuation of our own."

In Dr. Sargeaunt's opinionCanada is, in fact, not taking its permis­sible quota. With the atmosphere ofpublic disapproval towards sealing inthis country combined with the failureof the industry to find an effectiveyear-round use for sealing ships, thenumber of ships going to the ice hasdecreased each year. This year only sixCanadian ships wilt go, since they areold and ill·equiped it is not likely thatthey will take EO-thousand seals,

Should the seal fishery in thiscountry end, Dr. Sergeaunt feels thatthere wou Id be other important lossesaside from the most obvious financialone, "Sealing ships are very, veryuseful as survey ships", he said, "if welose the sealing industry we will alsolose shipyards with the ability to buildthese ships and even more important,in a few years Canada will not haveCaptains and crews who know how tohandle ice. Thiswould be a big loss forthe country from many points ofview."

Dr. Sergeaunt is also concernedwith the forthcoming importance ofcaplin as a marketable product. "Atpresent we have very tittle knowledgeof this fish. We do not know theextent of our stocks and we do notknow how dependent other marine lifeis on the caplin." Admitting that hisfigures were based on insufficient reosearch and "very crude indeed," Dr.Sergeaunt estimated that mammalslike the whale consume 500,000metric tons of caplin each year andthat cod consume another 2,000,000metric tons. "Other animals like harpseals also eat caplin, it is il .. jJOrtantthat we get some idea as to what levelwe can fish caplin without upsettingthe food chain of other marine lifebefore we begin exploiting this re­source on a large scale."
