ROBERT CHAMBERLAINE of Wapping, Middlesex, sailor aged 57. He was a quartermaster of the EAGLE which on her outward voyage from London loaded salt at Lisbon for New England and then went on to James Town and Nancy Mum River, Virginia. There she loaded tobacco to the accounts of Robert Bourne, William Painter, Mr. Potter, Robert Clarke, John Wingfield, John Rice, Thomas Potts and Humfrey Owen. On her homeward passage about 150 leagues from Virginia the EAGLE ran into a great storm in march 1650 and another at the end of the same month off Scilly as the result of which she sprang a great leak which damaged her tobacco.
