==Biographical synthesis==
John Dare (b. ca. 1602; d. ?). Mariner.

One of the company of the ship the ''Elizabeth'' of Plymouth (which is described as a barque) on her voyage from Plymouth to Kondon.

Resident in 1656 in Torkey (alt. Torquay) iin the county of Devon.

==Evidence from High Court of Admiralty==
Fifty-four year old John Dare deposed on April 3rd 1656 in the High Court of Admiralty.<ref>[[HCA 13/71 f.130r Annotate|HCA 13/71 f.130r]]</ref> He was examined on interrogatories in the cause of the "Lord Protector against the shipp the ''Elizabeth'' of Plimouth, Christofer Rebons (or Trebons) master, and goods".<ref>[[HCA 13/71 f.129v Annotate|HCA 13/71 f.129v]]</ref>

John Dare stated that he kad known the ship the ''Elizabeth'' for the last three years and that he believed it had been built at Plymouth, the port to which she belonged. The ship was owned by three inhabitants of Plymouth - Mr Samuel Mansell, John Downing, and Mr Trenine. Goods were laden into the ship at Plymouth for transportation to London, consisting of "six bales and two packs of peece goods belonging to Mr Thoroughgood and company, foure and twenty chests or thereabouts of sugar, six hundred peeces of fruite, about tenn barrells of goods and a hogshead of goods (the contents hee knoweth not) and. about 60 slobs of tynne, all belonging to Mr Goodier and others of this citie (where the said Mr Thoroughgood alsoe dwelleth)".<ref>[[HCA 13/71 f.130r Annotate|HCA 13/71 f.130r]]</ref>

En route for London the ship was seized by an Ostend man of war, but then recaptured by Captaine Saunders in the ''Tyger frigot''. Lost as a result of the original seizure was a pack containing thirty pieces of fruit and, bizarrely, the master of the ''Elizabeth'', who had been taken out of the barque by the Ostenders.<ref>[[HCA 13/71 f.130r Annotate|HCA 13/71 f.130r]]</ref>
