Hello there,

Thank you for your website! I'm doing some family history research, looking into some family stories that were never spoken about. I think it turns out my great-grandfather was an American navy deserter from the great white fleet! No wonder I couldn't find any passenger ships called the 'Connectuit'..! Lo and behold listed on your website is my great-grandfather with a 10 pound reward to turn in the straggler.

Just thought I'd drop you a line-

Cheers,
Alice


Alice,

Thank you for your note.

I am pleased that Ahoy was able to sort out the fact that your Great Grandfather was indeed a deserter in Australia from the Great White Fleet .

Regards,
Mac
