The Texas Co., Launching of the ''Ohio''

  • draconian ray said:
    Wow; I never cease to be amazed at what arbitrary browsing of the commons turns up. A quick search reveals this to be the very Ohio that stayed afloat despite extensive damage and made it to Malta with its cargo of oil, considered by some to have saved Malta from falling into German hands.

Gulf Oil Corp., Marine Dept. Loading Tanker

  • JM L said:
    This particular Gulfdawn was a T2-SE-A1 tanker constructed by Sun Shipbuilding in 1943. T2 tankers were the tanker equivalent of Victory Ships. Originally launched as San Antonio, operated by Gulf Oil Co. during the war, and then renamed Gulfdawn in 1947. It was sold to a Monrovia-registered operator in 1958 and eventually scrapped in 1966.

    Built in Germany before WW1 as SS Imperator she was seized by the Allies as war reparation for the torpedoed RMS Lusitania.

    Those old ocean liners were beautiful ships especially compared to the cruise ships of today. My dad was one of the British Home Children who was sent to Canada at the age of 13. If I can find the name of the ship he sailed on perhaps you could find a photo of it. He was born in Newcastle so I think there's a chance the ship might have been built there. I remember the name of the ship started with the letter M.

    Hola, tu excelente fotografía fue vista en el grupo AQUELLOS MAGNÍFICOS NAVÍOS
  • Doug D said:
    I found the information I was looking for. The name of the ship he came to Canada on was the Montrose which sailed out of Liverpool and docked in Quebec arriving on 30 June 1922. He was 13 years of age at the time and one of a group of 100 children.
