Wood & Brown families of Dumbarton
« on: Monday 05 October 09 04:25 UTC (UK) »
I am hoping some kind sole might be able to help me in discovering information for my son in law and his family.
Thomas Wood wh was a ship joiner born Brewery Lane Dumbarton 6 Feb 1854 and believed to be the son of John Wood and Janet McIlquham.
Thomas was educated Dumbarton Academy and in 1869 apprenticed to Scott and Linton.
I think he may have married Margaret Brown and they had at least three children.He may have had a link with "Cutty Sark" which I think was launched in 1869.
When Scott and Linton ceased operations he was one of a number of apprentices transferred to Leven Shipyard.
In the 80s he made several trips to New Zealand on the "Arawa".
Any assistance or guidance greatly appreciated.
