Dutch entries in the pound-toll registers of Elbing, 1585-1700

This dataset contains the transcription of the Dutch entries in the Elbing pound-toll registers in the 1585-1700 period. Data were entered at two different levels, which resulted in two files: a ship and a cargo component. Data such as shipping routes, destinations, names of masters and their ships and traded goods are included in this database. The name of the merchant for whom a particular product was being shipped is included for the year 1586. After that year instead of the merchants' names, the ownership of goods is indicated as being Dutch, English, etc. The 1585-1700 period is divided into four sub-periods for which data are available: 1585 until 1600, 1601 until 1625, 1653 until 1655, and 1685 until 1700.
