The Burney Collection
(https://www.bl.uk/collection-guides/burney-collection)
The vast newspaper collection of the Rev. Charles Burney, now digitized and searchable online. A tip for researchers: bear in mind that during the eighteenth century a letter resembling ‘f’ was used for an ‘s’ at the start or in the middle of a word, so a word search for ‘Atkinfon’ (for example) will yield many more results than one for ‘Atkinson’.
Founders Online (http://founders.archives.gov)
The correspondence and other writings of six founding fathers of the United States – George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison – searchable by date, author and recipient.
Legacies of British Slave-ownership (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/lbs/)
A centre for the study of colonial slavery and its legacy in modern-day Britain. Its database identifies all the slave owners in the British West Indies, the Cape and Mauritius who claimed compensation following the abolition of slavery in 1833; it also includes the ownership histories of thousands of estates.
National Library of Scotland: Maps of Jamaica
(https://maps.nls.uk/jamaica/)
James Robertson’s map of Jamaica, published in 1804, is the most detailed survey of the island at the height of its prosperity, showing the location of more than eight hundred sugar plantations. Now georeferenced, it can be viewed as a zoomable overlay on a modern Google map – an invaluable resource for those tracking down old estates.
The Papers of George Washington: Digital Edition
(https://rotunda.upress.virginia.edu)
The letters and diaries of the first President of the United States, searchable within the text as well as by date, author and recipient.
Slave Voyages (https://www.slavevoyages.org)
A comprehensive database of the transatlantic slave trade, drawing on British, Dutch, French, Portuguese and Spanish-language archives around the Atlantic world. It shines light on more than 36,000 slave-trading voyages, giving details of itineraries, dates, nationalities, names of ships, captains and shipowners, embarkation numbers and mortality rates.
