  • Sharp eyes and a FMP sub.

    Have a look at http://www.findmypast.co.uk/records/...image/D/159990

    1) Can you make out the entry about half way down first col? Looks like "Little Gap 8 crew" to me but transcribed as "Littlejan Shew" by FMP. Can you make out the rest of the entry?

    2) just out of interest have a look at the names of people lost at sea eg 3 coolies, 2 Chinese etc. They were callous times.
    People: Canton, Wiseman, Colthup, Scrace
    Places: Pembrokeshire, Kent.

    Looks like Little Gap to me. Or it could be Little Jap (possibly misheard for Chap?)
    Thought it said & crew but agree its more likely to be 8

          Yes, that's what happened with me Val. I wondered if it was because I was on the iPad. I do think FMP is more careful than Ancestry with checking log ins.

                Great find, Susan. I was only unsure because it seemed such a strange name!
