*   A Brief Explanation of the 'Dinsdale' and 'Philip' Ship Photographs

 

The collection of photographs we viewed recently were from David's collection and I thought this 'web page' method best to provide a tie-in from the photographs to our current knowledge of the vessels, and how  we can demonstrate family linkages.

HENRY BRAND

A Brodie Philip ship

On Reverse "Grandfathers last ship is taken by him to the Shipbreakers yard to be broken up" - written by Grandma Minnie Dinsdale. 

Dated on front as 22/7/07

Further Lloyds information available - will research further at NMM - ICD  
Lloyds Registry 1880
IS Henry Brand, 445 tons, built Hartlepool 1866   Master: H. Coombes
Owner: James Ledger Hill, Gloucester Square, Southampton.
Lloyds Registry 1870
Owner: R Young Wisbeach Surrey.  Hartlepool registered, Baltic trade.
Note: J. L. Hill later merged with W & E.
   
Presumption is that this description refers to Brodie Philip and he was Master of this ship. If so it was probably a Witherington & Everett vessel.

RIVER WEAR

A Brodie Philip ship

River Wear

Handwritten on reverse:-

Le Tréport is just north of Dieppe

River Wear of  Sunderland

Also entering Le Tréport

I have entries for the River Wear in Lloyds registry for 1920-21 and 1928-29. ( I haven't looked at the other years)

The River Wear was a ship of 1164 Net Tons, and built in 1912.

Listed as owners are Witherington & Everett of 27 Quayside, Newcastle upon Tyne. In 1928 the River Wear was one of six owned ships, and twelve under management. In 1921 the Master is listed as B G Dickinson.
