This series includes the papers of Edward "Teddy" Bolton Tucker. They include his work as a skin diver in and around Bermuda waters. Teddy devoted a significant amount of his professional life studying marine life and exploring wrecks off coastlines. He is best known for discovering the Tucker cross, an emerald encrusted 22 karat gold cross, in 1955 from the Spanish galleon shipwreck the "San Pedro". He sold it to the Government of Bermuda in 1959. Unfortnately, by 1975 it was discovered that it was stolen. Because a replica was used to hide the fact that it was stolen, it is believed that a professional art theif perpetrated the crime. The artifact has never been recovered. While much of Teddy's underwater findings and work remain in Bermuda, these papers offer insight into his boyhood, correspondence with relatives, and daily life in Bermuda.
