Notes:
N.B with 2 vessels of the same name, built around the same period and working in a similar theatre of war, it is not always possible to know which vessel is being discussed, so there is a good chance I, or the observer, may have confused one vessel with another, especially when one isn't specifically defined as either a sloop or cutter.
