I guess you all know how hard it is to trace family roots. Well today I tried to do it on ships I once sailed on, its unbelievable how many owners a vessel passes.
Found some good web sites and I bookmarked them in case anyone would like to view the sites. (Dare not post the addresses here because being keeled hauled is no fun). (*))
One site listed all the Fort and Park boats that were built, and the countries/owners that received them. One old gal I sailed out on had been re-named six times,the Russians had her for the first three years on lend lease before she was handed back to the UK. (Night)
