Salem Tales NATHANIEL BOWDITCH SCIENTIST Nathaniel Bowditch was born in Salem in 1773, the fourth of seven children. His childhood as we know it was short-lived: at the age of ten he was taken out of school to work in his father's cooperage. Two years later he was apprenticed to a local ship chandler. Nathaniel Bowditch was born here in Salem in 1773 The young teen spent his evenings teaching himself Latin and Greek and studying mathematics, science and astronomy. When his apprenticeship ended, Bowditch shipped out in 1795 on the first of five voyages to the East Indies. While at sea he spent his free time poring over the navigational tables prepared by John Hamilton Moore of England. Bowditch found and corrected over 8,000 errors. The corrected tables were included in Bowditch's The New American Practical Navigator published in both England and America in 1802. The 594 page volume also included information on navigational law, measurement, and terminology. The book was easily understood by sailors with limited education. It became, along with "a Bible, a chest of clothes and mother's blessing", an essential part of every seaman's gear. Nathaniel Bowditch Oil by Charles Osgood, 1835

There are many stories about Salem, Massachusetts and the fortunes that were made during the age of sail. Many ship owners and sea captains became very rich transporting cargoes of goods from one part of the world to another. However, not every Salem mariner was successful. Habakkuk Bowditch lost his savings and property during the American Revolution. He tried coopering (making barrels), but wasn't successful at that either. In 1773, the fourth of his seven children was born, a child named Nathaniel. Nathaniel was an excellent student, especially in math. He dreamed of staying in school and going on to college. Because his family was poor, his dreams were not realized. By the time he was ten, he had to leave school and go to work with his father making barrels. When he was twelve, he was apprenticed to a ship's chandlery, helping to supply the ships that were leaving for distant voyages. His apprenticeship lasted until he was 21 years old. Although Nathaniel was in a difficult situation, he did not give up. His love of learning helped him to continue his studies. In his spare time, he taught himself other languages. By translating the bible, a book that everyone at that time knew very well, he taught himself Latin, French, Greek, German, Portuguese, and Spanish. When he turned 21 he left the chandlery and went to sea, working on ships owned by Elias Haskett Derby, America's first millionaire. These voyages took him around the world.
