"The Veteran" Transportees to Antigua 08.05.1747
https://www.facebook.com/cullodenbattlefield/posts/668576303269783
On 8th May 1747, the Veteran sailed from Liverpool, England, under the command of Ship's Master John Ricky, bound for Antigua, St Kitts and Jamaica, with 149 Jacobite prisoners, including 15 women, on board where they were to be settled as indentured slaves.
En route on 28th June 1747 the Veteran was attacked about a day away from making landfall and captured off the coast of Antigua by a French privateer named the Diamant. The prisoners were taken to the French island of Martinique where they were released and set at liberty by the governor.
It is said the British government demanded the governor to return the prisoners but he refused to take action without instructions from France. However, the French government consistently refused to even consider returning the prisoners so they were never returned.
A MISHAP befell an expedition with 225 rebel prisoners, of whom 75 had engaged as soldiers. Mr. Smith, contractor, thus related it:—‟Cateaton Street, 22nd October 1747.— Sir, The loss of one of my ships with 150 rebels, the Veteran, John Ricky, Master, bound for Antigua, which was taken by the French privateer Paul Mars, and carried into Martinico, and of 75 sent with the East India Expedition which I was providing for, has been some disappointment to me. I have sent his Grace’s letter to the Governor of Leeward Islands to reclaim them of the French Governor by three different conveyances. I have also sent a list and exact description to my agents in all our colonies in the West Indies that they may be the more easily detected in case they are taken in any homeward-bound Martinico ship. A copy is enclosed for Admiralty lest any should escape to France or Scotland; all the rest are safe arrived at Barbadoes, Jamaica and Virginia. I desire to know when I am to have the care of those who remain at Carlisle, York, Southwark, and elsewhere.‟ In a postscript is added something as to the attempt to find a North-West passage: "The ships we sent out in search of the North-West passage are returned without having completed the discovery, but have brought us a greater probability than ever.‟

Letter from Samuel Smith to Andrew Stone concerning the capture of his ship sailing from Liverpool with 150 rebel prisoners taken to Martinico [Martinique] by French privateer rebels, 22 October 1747 (SP 36/102/38).
Cateaton Street 22nd October, 1747.
Sir, The loss of one of my ships with 150 rebels, which was taken by the French & carried into Martinico, and of 75 sent with the last India Expedition, which I was providing for, has been some disappointment to me, but in order to remedy the former as much as possible, I have sent His Grace the Duke of Newcastle letters to the Governor of the Leeward Islands to reclaim them of the French Governor, by three different conveyances, which I hope will produce the desired Effect; and I have sent a List, & exact description of those 150 People, to my Agents in all our Islands in the West Indies, that they may the more & easily be detected, in case they are taken in any homeward bounde Martinco [Martinique] ship, a Coppy of which, I now take the liberty to send you inclosed and beg the favour you will send it to the Admiralty that the proper Officers belonging to His Majestys ships may have instructions to enquire after them, least any should escape to France, or Scotland; all the rest that I had the care of, are safe arrived at Barbadoes, Jamaica, and Virginia. my farther request is Sir, that you’ll be so kind to let me know, when I am to have the care of those which still remain at Carlisle, York, Southwark & elsewheres, which will much oblige.
Sir Your Faithfull & devoted servant, Sam Smith

The island of Martinico or Martinique, into which the prisoners were carried, was in French possession, though taken from the French fifteen years later by Admiral Rodney, to whom its Governor-General, De La Touche, capitulated. It was the chief of all the Leeward Islands owned by the French, and was the residence of the ruler of the French settlements in the West Indies. It was quite typical of the other islands in its character and products. Its exports were sugar, cotton, cocoa, aloes, coffee, cassia, etc., and the climate was more adapted to blacks than whites. The island was recently the scene of a terribly disastrous volcanic disturbance, which came suddenly with appalling and devastating destruction to life and property. In 1747 it was a sally-port for French privateers in the West Indian Seas, just as the Island of Bourbon was to French pirates in the Indian Ocean. As the articles of the 1762 capitulation make no reference to the 150 prisoners in course of transportation, it is to be presumed that they had previously quitted the island.
The captured vessel was duly claimed from the French in January 1748, but they peremptorily declined to hand over it or the prisoners to the British Government. They were then asked to include the latter in the next cartel for the exchange of prisoners, and again they refused to enter into any engagement implying the return of the unfortunates to English servitude. What the fate of these prisoners—these twice-taken captives— ultimately was, does not transpire from the official papers.
