Mary (ship)
Numerous vessels have born the name Mary:
- Mary (1806 ship) was launched at Liverpool and made one voyage as a slave ship before the British slave trade ended, during which voyage she engaged in a notable action with two British warships. She then traded with Haiti and Brazil, and possibly made one voyage to India. Next she then became a whaler and was lost in 1825 in the Pacific on the second of two whaling voyages.
- Mary (1811 Bideford ship) was a West Indiaman that made one voyage transporting convicts to New South Wales. She then returned to the West Indies trade, before trading with Quebec; she was last listed in 1835.
- Mary (1811 Ipswich ship) made one voyage for the British East India Company (EIC), to New South Wales (NSW), and Bengal. She continued to trade with Australia and then made five voyages transporting convicts there: two to New South Wales, two to Van Diemen's Land, and one in which she carried convicts to both. She was last listed in 1841.
