Biographical History

Thomas Pym Cope was already an established Philadelphia merchant in 1821 when he began the first regular packet line between Philadelphia and Liverpool. The business continued throughout most of the nineteenth century, with the company name changing as successive generations assumed responsibility. The shipping company section here is primarily a record of the business conducted out of Liverpool where the packets unloaded cotton, flour, wheat, turpentine, resin, and bark, and took on salt, pig iron, tin, and ash. The line also developed a sizable passenger business.
