I was wondering if anyone knows if any records were ever kept on the packet
boats that delivered produce from the Cos Cob/Greenwich, Connecticut are to
New York City via the Mianus River.

I am particularly interested in the boat Emeline whose Captain was Henry
Whelpley  of Greenwich, Connecticut in 1826. Henry also was one of 4 owners
of a vessel called Mary which was built in Greenwich in 1803. The other
owners were Solomon Peck (Master), Samuel Ferris, and Ethan Ferris.
