He was born In Maidstone Kent,1870. He joined the London fire brigade at one time and his profession prior to that was Master Bargeman. Any help on the name or Medway Bargemen links would be a great help. I have no reason to believe he worked on the Thames. Merv --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
