Cardiff Dockers
« on: Thursday 18 August 05 19:17 BST (UK) »
hi all

would anyone know if employment records still exist for Cardiff dockers in the 1940/50/60s, or would these sort of documents have been dumped?

Hi Mick,
I would try for Union records, then you will find who they were employed by and possibly find the company still around.
Good Luck
Jane
