Roselle (1786 ship)

[1] On 21 October 1786, an advertisement appeared in the Edinburgh Evening Courant announcing that Roselle was planning to sail to Jamaica.

The artist Graham Fagen used the sketch in the advertisement as inspiration of his own print of Roselle for the National Galleries of Scotland.

On 13 June 1797, Lloyd's List (LL) reported that Roselle, Liddle, master, had arrived at Jamaica from Leith with an American brig that she had recaptured.

The Vice admiralty court at St. Jago de la Vega, Jamaica, awarded Roselle, John Staples, master, one-sixth of the value of the brig, plus costs and expenses to the captors.

Lieutenant of frigates Vicente Lago sailed her to Havana, on the way outsailing two large British vessels that tried to recapture Roselle.
