Notes:
Charts used by Thomas S. Parke, father of donor. Parke operated C/V Barbarra V & later C/V Tiller Tramp from 1967 until his death in 1985. Vessels were used for "Coastwise Trade" which is US Coast Guard vessel use classification. In Parke's case this meant use for sports hunting & fishing, sightseeing, freight transport & specific project charters. Boats were also used for family outings.
