It took at least nine people to make Mary Celeste. The hermaphrodite brig in question was built by majority shareholder Joshua Dewis between fall 1860 and spring 1861 under the half brig's Nova Scotia-registered, original name of Amazon. Mr. Dewis was joined by eight other shareholders, including Captain Robert McLaren and relatives Isaac and Jacob Spicer.
