Thames Lighterage Service
« on: Saturday 10 November 12 16:17 GMT (UK) »


Just discovered a relative worked for this company. He is listed on the 1911 census as being an Able Bodied Seaman in the Greenwich Hospital--The Seamans Hospital for Sick Seamen of all nations. This beggers the question of why a seaman, as on the 1901 census he listed, again in hospital ( a different one) as a private in the Dublin Fusiliers!!
 After that tome what I wondered, is there somewhere which retains records of men employed by the TLS?
