I am new to the forum.  I found my ancestor was a ship captain  involved in 
the "West Indies trade."  I am curious whether he was a slave  trader.  This 
was late 17th early 18th century.  Does anyone know of  any reference materials 
identifying known slave traders and/or slave  trading vessels, or other 
reference materials that might help me in my  inquiry?
