Log Pages for Transcribing - voyage now complete

Post by arboggs »

Welcome to the log book of the Wm Baylies 1894-1895

The transcription of this logbook is complete. Thank you transcription crew! :)
There are plenty of other logbooks to work on. Check the Shipyards or request help from moderator AvastMH. Thank you :)

(Steam bark) of San Francisco, mastered by John MacInnis, on voyage from 31 Mar. 1894 - 7 Nov. 1895.

If you would like to work on a section of the log please
  • leave a note in the next available reply section of this board below
  • remember to say which section you would like to work on
  • a link to the workbook, for your transcriptions, will be provided to you by personal message
  • let us know if you would rather work in Excel, LibreCalc, or Google Sheets
  • each section of the log must be transcribed by three different transcribers
Where to start once I have my log section and workbook?
Please ensure that you read these information pages before transcribing
  1. Transcribing: capturing the log details, and information resources
  2. Transcribing: managing your recording workbook

Fab - many thanks! :D

Shiplover's getting through it as well, section E I think now. I wonder if I'll get some transcribing time. I did a lot of the other WB logs in Phase 1 :)
