Sorry - can't realy help. But the Natinal Maritime Museum at Greenwich
might be able to help. Also try the Historic Vessels and other similar
mailing lists via http://chrisbrady.itgo.com/tallship/forums.htm

Excuse me blowing in from a Shakespeare newsgroup. Can anyone identify ships
of the Elizabethan period called 1) "Lion" or "Lyon", 2) "Tiger" or "Tyger",
3) "Phoenix", possibly "Phenix", or even "Phaenix". They might be warships
or they might be private vessels, possibly used for exploration in the
Americas.

Thanks in advance.
