Hi
I'm looking for any information about cargo ship SS Rosslyn and in particular any photos or information about the people who may have worked onboard.
I know she was built by Northumberland Shipbuilding Co Ltd in 1902 and went to James Tucker Steamship Co Ltd (J Cory & Sons Ltd), Cardiff...
Given to me by a friend, c.1962.
Tongariro
Built: 1901 Hawthorn Leslie, Newcastle
Tonnage: 8,073grt
Owners: NZSCo
1916: 30th August: Wrecked on Bull Rock, Portland Is, Hawke Bay, en route to Wellington from Newport News.
Broke in two and became total loss, although much of the cargo was salvaged.
