THE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY colonial artist Thomas McIlwort, an example of whose work is illustrated above, is the subject of a forthcoming catalogue raisonne. He worked in New York City, Albany and Schenectady, New York. He was married to Anna Statia Willett and had three children, one of whom was the godson of Sir William Johnson, the British superintendent of Indian affairs in the colonies. McIlworth painted Johnson as well as members of the Van Rensselaer, Van Cortlandt, Stuyvesant, Livingston, and Schuyler families, and members of the Schenectady elite. He also painted the Reverend Samuel Johnson, the first president of King's College (now Columbia University). Although McIlworth never signed his work, he had a distinctive, rather flat style. His paintings are represented in the New-York Historical Society in New York City, the Albany Institute of History and Art in Albany, New York, the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan, the Brooklyn Historical Society in New York City, Smith Col lege in Northampton, Massachusetts, and in private collections. Those owning paintings by McIlworth or who have information relating to the whereabouts of his paintings should contact

PAINTINGS are being sought in preparation for a book about the clipper ship Snow Squall, which was built in Maine in 1851 for Charles Reynolds Green of New York City. On her maiden voyage, the Snow Squall's hull was white with a vermilion streak along the gunwales, although she was subsequently painted black. The ship also carried standing skysail pales and yards, a half poop, and had as her figurehead a toothy dragon's head. Green's flag was a blue swallowtail with a red cross. Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of such paintings should contact
