  The Sterling name rang a bell - the ship 'Helen B Sterling', named after Captain Edward Robert Sterling's wife, had a rather sad ending in Sydney in the 1930s. See comments etc on this photo of the ship passing under the Harbour Bridge in 1931 -

  beachcomber australia Thank you for that link beachcomber! It is a wonderful photograph. There appears to be quite a bit of information about the vessels, and the shipping family available which is promising.
