[AvM]

British House of Commons Papers inluded

Ships, &c. prosecuted as Prize during the late, and the present war
which included oeriod Jan 1802 to March 1808

I am looking for any other periods, perkaps any such lists
of prizes form 1798 to 1802, and from 1808 to 1815

Look for the high court of Admiralty records on the National Archive discovery site. https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/

Use the advanced search and the reference HCA, filter by the year range you are intersted in.

Many thanks!

There are 1000s of ships

Do you know any published lists?

[Cy]

Yes, there's huge numbers. I'm afraid I do not know of anything published.
You might also be interested in Lloyd's list https://www.maritimearchives.co.uk/lloyds-list.html which has records of lost English vessels. Lloyd's were Maritime insurers.

You can message the Prize Court project at the National Archives, they'll reply in a week/10 days quite comprehensively.
