1717: Insurrection aboard the Anne Gally, bound for Montserrat (voyage 15220)
African
On a slaving voyage that ended at Montserrat in 1717, the people aboard the Anne Gally rose against the crew. They had been taken at Gambia.
The record gives the numbers as: 82 people were embarked; 17 were landed; 65 died on the crossing.
Captain: Clarke, Benjamin. Flag: Great Britain. Recorded outcome, in the database’s words: “shipwrecked or destroyed, after embarkation of slaves or during slaving.”
Resistance is recorded only where a surviving document mentions it. The 571 such acts in the record are a floor. Silence in that column is silence in the archive. It says nothing about calm on the ship.
