Thanks, James.  Many years ago I inquired about the existence of
London Co records, but never got an answer. Records seem to have
been destroyed, as you say.
In my previous study of the Virtual Jamestown site, I found a list
of the ships and passengers. I must have been on another site,
because I can't find that info now.  I'll keep digging.   Charlie
