5. [CANAL-PEOPLE] COMMANDER [1]
I am a new subscriber to the List and wonder if there is anyone with connections to the Commander family. Briefly Robert Commander b 1835 Worcester apparently worked on the canals. His brother George Commander owned The Prince of Wales Robert's son George Robert worked the canals before settling in Wales early 1900's. If anyone has a connection or would like further details please contact me. Kind regards Ann Cape Town

8. Re: [CANAL-PEOPLE] new subscriber HOOLE family in Cheshire & Lancs. [1]
Hello Jim, I have just purchased the Old Ordnance Survey map 1898 of Hanley & Etruria. I cannot find Drawbridge Cottage, but I could scan the relevant part of the map which shows the area around Etruria Vale. Or, if you are interested, you could order the map from www.alangodfreymaps.co.uk , price GBP 1.95 and 50p P&P (UK & Ireland) Have any new listers seen any references to Barnabas BEAUMONT who was a Boatman from at least 1851-1861 in Tipton? Regards, Gil. Hall. Southampton, England Researching HAL
9. [CANAL-PEOPLE] Publican and BargeMaster [1]
Hi, The 1871 Reading census shows Joseph EACOTT as a Publican of the " Jack of Newbury", Bridge Street, Reading. He is also shown as Boatowner and Master of the Vessels "Victoria" on which his brother-in-law James Emans is to be found, and the " Napoleon". The boats are at Canal Wharf, Bridge Street Reading. The crew of the boats all seem to come from Devizes and Melksham. Does any of this information ring any bells. If it does, I would love to hear from you. Sylvia Ford subieford@aol.com
10. [CANAL-PEOPLE] Waterman [1]
Dear Listers We see a lot about boatman/waterman. I am searching for details of Thomas Corbett a waterman in 1834-45 Worcester. He is always described as a waterman and I am of the opinion that he may have been a ferryman rather than a canal boatman as I had originally thought, that is rowing across a river. Could anybody on the list tell me if this may be a correct assumption and if so where I would look for details of such. Are there any records kept of these water people. Thanking you in advance. Ja

Hi all Just a quick email to say that if you have emailed my and it bounced this was due to technical problems with Virgin. It seems, and I have everything crossed that the problem is resolved, although what the problem was no one, including Virgin seems to know. Anyway; I am back and I bet you never missed me!! The list has been a bit quiet, and I apologies for not being more active, but I do have to sleep sometime! I am working on a few big projects and 24 hours a day is simply not enough! As so
14. Re: [CANAL-PEOPLE] Thomas Spencer and his son Philip Gell Spencer [1]
Hi Sharon, While knowing nothing, I regret, of your SPENCERs, I do know Newhall Street in Birmingham, which still exists, and includes the Post Office Tower amongst other notable buildings. And a flight of locks runs beneath it, which establishes a canal connection of a sort. You say you've found young Philip in the 1881 Census - but on looking at the National Index, there are 21 Philip SPENCERs, including 2 Philip G's who were born (nominally) in 1861 and 1863. The Census was taken on 3 April - and Phili

I am new to this list and am searching for elusive ancestors from the canal era. Owen Ryan, born Ireland, appears to have been working on the Delaware and Chesapeake Canal when his son John was born 01 November 1825 in MD. John later moved to Douglassville, PA where he married Margaret Irey and was a boatman on the Schuylkill Canal. Can anyone tell me where are the best places to research information on the Owen Ryan and other canal workers/boatman of this era and in this region? Thanks, Colleen Ry
