Title Bristol Shipping Records: Imports and Exports, 1770-1917
Description

The Bristol Presentments are bills of entry derived from official sources, namely the reports and manifests of ships which docked in the port of Bristol in South-West England. These bills are divided into two categories. The first contains details of imports, usually foreign produce carried on foreign vessels. The second records exports, usually produced or manufactured in Britain and destined for foreign markets. This collection thus provides an insightful overview of global trade from the onset of the industrial revolution to the height of the First World War. 

Note: Some of the volumes are incomplete and those for 1829 and 1845 are missing
