Chiswick (or Cheswick) was built at Batavia for Dutch owners but quickly fell into British hands. She became a West Indiaman. The French captured her in 1804 but she quickly returned to British hands. She was wrecked at Aux Cayes in 1809. CareerCheswick first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1799 with J. Pointer, master, L. Bruce, owner, and trade London–Jamaica.[2]On 4 December 1803 Chiswick, Pondler, master, sailed from Gravesend for Jamaica. Lloyd's List reported on 1 May 1804 that Chiswick, Pondler, master, had been captured in the West Indies as she was sailing from London to Jamaica. Her captors had sent her into St Martins.[3] On 11 or 12 August, however, Chiswick, Williams, master, returned to Gravesend from St Kitts.[4] How she came to return to British hands is unclear. Lloyd's Register for 1805 showed Cheswick with J.Ponter, master, changing to J. Kerslake, L.Bruce, owner, changing to Swann & Co., and trade London–Jamaica, changing to Liverpool–Barbados.[5]Captain James Kerslake acquired a letter of marque on 19 July 1805.[1] Lloyd's Register for 1808 showed Cheswick with J. Kerslake, master, changing to P. Callan, Swan & Co., owners, changing to Forbes & Co., and trade Liverpool–Barbados.[6]FateCheswick, of Liverpool, Callan, master, was wrecked on 19 July 1808 at Aux Cayes, West Indies.[7] She was on her way from Liverpool to Cap Francois. {{HMS|Diamond|1794|6}} saved much of the cargo.[8]Post-script: Court caseChiswick carried insurance on her freight from Haiti to Liverpool. After her loss, "Forbes and Another" sued the insurer, "Aspinall" for the entire cargo loss, not just the portion on Chiswick intended for Liverpool. The case revealed that she had left Liverpool with goods to barter at Haiti for goods to bring back. She had arrived at Jacmel on 4 July and exchanged some goods for 55 bales of cotton that she would take back. She was on her way to Aux Cayes when she wrecked. She was still carrying outward-bound cargo when she wrecked and it was some of this that Diamond had saved. Twelve days after the wrecking, the saved cargo was exchanged for 250 tons of coffee and 100 tons of wood. Forbes & Co. was suing for coverage of the lost outward bound cargo. However, the court ruled that the insurance only covered homeward-bound cargo, i.e., the 55 bales.{{sfnp|East|1845|pp=166–170}} Citations and referencesCitations1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|url=http://www.1812privateers.org/Great%20Britain/marque1793-1815.pdf|title=Letter of Marque, p.56 - accessed 25 July 2017.|publisher=|access-date=27 October 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161020052005/http://www.1812privateers.org/Great%20Britain/marque1793-1815.pdf|archive-date=20 October 2016|dead-url=yes|df=dmy-all}} References2. ^1 2 [https://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015004281260?urlappend=%3Bseq=86 LR (1799), Seq.№C610.] 3. ^[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.c2735021?urlappend=%3Bseq=283 Lloyd's List №4449.] 4. ^[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.c2735021?urlappend=%3Bseq=343 Lloyd's List №4479, ship arrival and departure (SAD) data.] 5. ^[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015005667111?urlappend=%3Bseq=102 LR (1805), Seq.№C429.] 6. ^1 2 [https://hdl.handle.net/2027/mdp.39015005676377?urlappend=%3Bseq=99 LR (1808), Seq.№C424.] 7. ^[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.c2735023?urlappend=%3Bseq=365 Lloyd's List №4286.] 8. ^[https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc1.c2735023?urlappend=%3Bseq=367 Lloyd's List №4284.]
