DATA SETS


MATTAPOISETT RECORDS
The Mattapoisett Records data set includes data from:
1850 U.S. Federal Census
1855 Massachusetts Census
1855 Map of Marion (business & civic locations)
1856 Map of the Town of Rochester
1867 Plymouth County Directory
The Massachusetts Cultural Resource Information System (MACRIS)

This project created people IDs for individuals listed in the 1850 U.S. Federal Census or 1855 Massachusetts Census and born since 1850, and IDs for building locations on the 1856 map. IDs are also included for individuals with multiple records who are not in the 1850 Rochester Census. The IDs connect associated records, and each connection is assigned a confidence level. A "0" confidence identifies that entry as the primary entry. An ID has a maximum of one primary entry. A confidence level of "1" indicates that the connection is highly probable, "2" probable, and "3" possible. The clickable census map displays connections that are between "0" and "2."

MATTAPOISETT SHIPBUILDING
The Mattapoisett Shipbuilding data set includes data from:

MATTAPOISETT WHALING CREW & MATTAPOISETT WHALING VOYAGE
These two data sets are effectively subsets of American Offshore Whaling Voyages: A Database that only include records for people associated with the Mattapoisett/Rochester area and/or vessels from Mattapoisett/Rochester.

The core American Offshore Whaling databases are the work of Judith Lund and Tim Smith. The Whaling History website (https://whalinghistory.org) is a collaboration between Mystic Seaport and New Bedford Whaling Museum.

This project uses the July 6, 2018 crew data release, with additional adjustments to crew ID format and Solon voyage IDs integrated April 2019, and adds IDs that connect whaling crew members with individuals in the Mattapoisett Records data set.
