Capt. John JELLARD ^111,4714

   Cause of his death was Overdose of Laudanum (Morphine).

  Noted events in his life were:

1. Owner: Co-Owner of several fishing vessels, 1822-1845, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ⁸⁵⁰ Robert Carter and James Howe Carter co-owned the FANNY (1822-1850), built in Ferryland; the ELIZA (1825-1826), built in Ferryland; and, with John Jellard, the ANGERONA (1833-1845), built by James Howe Carter in Ferryland. James Howe Carter built (in Chapel's Cove) and owned the GREY HOUND (1836-1869) on his own. This event was shared from Robert CARTER JP who also shared it with James Howe CARTER (Witness).

2. Occupation: Master of Merchant Vessels, including the ANGERONA, and Merchant, Between 1833 and 1842, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^{114,185,190,4715}

3. Owner: Launch of the Angerona, 20 Feb 1833, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ¹¹⁴ Tuesday, 1 January 1833
We learn from Robert Carter's diary that the vessel he had been having built for him in 1832, the Angerona, has finally been launched on 20 February, 1833 but it is not made clear if indeed it was able to take part in the seal fishery that year, as was intended.

There were actually three owners: Robert; his brother, James Howe Carter; and John Jellard.

The Angerona was a brig, and thus bigger than most boats being built for the trade in those days which were schooners. It's dimensions were: Length 66 ft.; Width 20 ft.; Depth 11 ft; Gross Tonnage 110.

After the death of Robert Carter, ownership changed to his sons, Robert Carter Jr., and James Henry Carter, who apparently took on Jellard's share, with James Howe Carter retaining his share.
This event was shared from Robert CARTER JP who also shared it with James Howe CARTER (Owner).

4. Residence: Occupation of old Sweetland home on the Downs, 1836, Ferryland, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. ^2757,4716 There is evidence that this house actually was left to the three daughters of William Coulman in his will and that at least two of them occupied it with their respective spouses for a certain period of time. This house was originally given by Deed of Gift to Ann Carter (Hill-Sweetland-Morry) by her father, Robert Carter, was either attached to his house or immediately adjacent to it. It was transferred by William to his three daughters in 1836.
