Estate Plan. An Accurate Survey and Plan of two Farms of Land lying the one at East and the other at West Barnby belonging to Mr. Thomas Fishburn. Made Anno 1781, by L.Charlton Philomath. fine original ink and watercolour manuscript map on laid, with compass rose and scale of chains, laid on near contemp. hessian, slight fraying to margins, 520 x 720mm. The map shows two farms, their fields and the acreage of each, belonging to Thomas Fishburn, situated near the hamlets of East and West Barnby about five miles North West of Whitby in Yorkshire. Thomas Fishburn was a shipwright and owned a ship building yard at Whitby and in June 1764 he built and launched a ship called “The Earl of Pembroke”. This ship was purchased by the Royal Navy in March 1768 and was re-named “HMS Endeavour”. HMS Endeavour was the ship which was given to a newly promoted Lieutenant James Cook, who was to sail her on one of the most famous voyages of discovery ever undertaken. His voyage to Australia and New Zealand; the “Terra Australis Incognita” or the unknown Southern land in the years 1769 to 1771 has become the stuff of legend and Cook’s celebrated reputation as a commander, navigator, cartographer and explorer is arguably second to none. Cook was to return a national hero and was promoted to Commander. HMS Endeavour ended her days as a worn out troop transporter and prison ship in New Port, Rhode Island. Her final resting place is unknown for in the final ignominy she was towed out to the entrance of Newport harbour and in an attempt to frustrate ships carrying French troops she was scuttled in Narragansett Bay.
