    The ocean liner Leviathan arrived in New York City with a shipload of troops on March 6, 1919, according to front page coverage in the March 7, 1919, New York Times.

    I'll have a dry martini please ... or maybe it has not been invented yet? The sun is well over the yard-arm where I am.

    It's a long way from the ferry to Holyhead! :-)
  • ccferrie said:
    Looks like it must be 1860-1865 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Great_Eastern The Sept 1861 voyage looks like a contender - "On the second day out [from Liverpool] the wind increased to gale force, causing the ship to roll heavily"
  • ccferrie said:
    Although, the captain of the ship from 1866-78, during its cable-laying years, was a Wicklow man en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Halpin It seems odd that the saloon and dining saloon would be so luxuriously appointed for that kind of work though.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    ccferrie The absolute earliest this could be is 1865, as Lawrence didn't set up in business until then. But logistically speaking, it was probably at least a few years after that. (Robert French, photographer on three-quarters of our Lawrence Collection didn't even start working for William Lawrence until 1880-ish....)

VATERLAND -- Hoboken, 12/11/14 (LOC)

  • Kilted Cowboy said:
    poor Vaterland, barely in service and then lost. She was not a much loved ship though she had a long and generally successful career after the war with the US as as SS Leviathan
