18680012009Macao Macau China Havana Cuba: Chinese Coolie Ship Manifest. Fair with no dust jacket. 1868. Non-Book. On offer is a tremendous San Salvadorian ship manifest recording the names and information of 622 Chinese men who were transported from the port of Macau to Havana Cuba to complete their indentured servitude as coolies working for Cuban sugar plantation owners. This manifest is for the January 25 1868 sailing of the Peruvian Galley the America. This sailing was captained by Cpt Ferreiro for the Compania Maritima del Peru. This sailing was under the San Salvadorian flag. The ship arrived in Macau on May 20 1868. 610 coolies departed Macau and 607 arrived in Cuba. This manifest was signed on January 241868 by Henrique W. Pearce a Macao-based emigration agent. It was also signed the day before departure on January 241868 by The Consul General of His Majesty José de Alguilar. The America had previously been used as a coolie ship called Red Rose under the British flag and under the Italian flag as the America. The America completed a total of seven coolie voyages transporting a total of 4703 Chinese passengers. The Chinese coolie trade a system of indentured labor that targeted young poor Chinese men operated from 1847-1874. Throughout this period African slavery was slowly being abolished around the world. The coolie trade was initiated by Britain and was eventually dominated by both Britain and the United States of America. Chinese coolie laborers were sent to work in British American and Spanish colonies and the nature of the trade changed throughout its 27-year operation due to social and political pressures. The coolie trade took place in large part between the shipping port in Macao now a part of China then under Portuguese rule and Havana Cuba then under Spanish control. As Macau was under Portugese rule at the time of the coolie trade they transported coolies on their vessels frequently and many of the manifests were written in Portuguese and/or Spanish.
