Hi Hugh,


Thanks for your help, I tried looking up Teano but the Maritime History Archive lists it as E2 No Official Log present.



I have copies of his C10, C.R.1 and 2 copies of C.R.2's so I have been able to follow him from 6/6/1920 to 16/8/1938 when I think he may have gone ashore.



The family story is he ran away to sea when he was 14 and living in South Africa. It looks like he added 4 years to his age because his MN documents have him born in 1884. Although he was born in Southampton he spent all his adult life sailing out of Hull mainly Ellerman Wilson Line so I'm thinking he may have gone from galleyboy to Cook on Trawlers in his early years. I'm no Sherlock Holmes so I could be totally wrong it would not be the first time.


If you come up with any ideas please let me know and thanks again.


Regards


Casso.
