The introduction of the Forum is titled 'Sugar and navies in the age of sail' by @wilsonevan which introduces the forum by asking: what were the basic ‘ingredients’ of sugar in the eighteenth century? How did navies relate to each ingredient? - https://t.co/WxaqsDRRRc

@JamesHolt245114 The best guide is Bruno Pappalardo, Tracing your Naval Ancestors (The National Archives, 2003). There's also an older book, NAM Rodger, Naval Records for Genealogists (1988).

Just recorded our first episode on a naval commander, the legendary Admiral Nelson (will be released in January). Many thanks to our special guest @wilsonevan for doing a stellar job on this episode. #Napoleon #horatio #nelson #britishnavy #navy #admiral

[Miles @darealmiles09]

A really eye opening and enjoyable read by @wilsonevan As he references, 1815 normally forms a barrier in the scholarship, so it was great to cut across it and pay unique attention to veterans and the experience of demobilisation in Britain.
