Please Support The Maritime Heritage Project

Hundreds of thousands of people around the world have found family members through the Project. All of the information on the site is provided free of charge.

The Maritime Heritage Project is a U.S. registered 501(c)(3) tax exempt charitable corporation established in San Francisco, California, U.S.A.
by D.A. Blethen Levy in 1998 to preserve San Francisco's shipping history from the mid-1800s to the turn of the Century.

"Master Under God"
Captains exercised absolute authority at sea and so were dubbed "Master Under God"
by early insurance writs, agreements with ship owners and passengers and the Board of Trade.
