Hi, I recently received an old chest from my father, who in turn bought it from a market in Nottingham many years ago. The chest has some documentation inside it claiming to be the chest of Richard Rollett and was used on the second voyage. The chest is large, certainly very old and very heavy. I can send you some pictures if you are interested. As of yet, I have not had any provenance done to validate the claim, but the documents do look as though the work was started. Kind Regards, Neil
