    3. Oluf Olsen ~1865-1913 from Stavanger Hi all I am looking for the origins to of my GGF who came to the UK in the late 1800s and married locally and was said to come from Stavanger. He was Oluf Johan Olsen and was a merchant captain all his life finally being lost with his ship of Newfoundland. If this sounds like it could fit your one of your family I would be happy to compare notes Best, jag

    3. From The Cork Examiner, 1 January 1864 - GREAT STORM ON THE DUTCH COAST. ---------- REPORTED LOSS OF HER MAJESTY'S GUN BOAT LIVELY. SEVERAL VESSELS LOST WITH ALL HANDS. The Dutch mail, which arrived yesterday, brought intelligence of a fearful gale from the north-west, with hail and snow at intervals, having been raging along the whole extent of the Dutch, Danish, and adjacent range of coast, occasioning much havoc amongst the shipping. The weather had been very tempestuous the last week or so, but on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday the wind gradually increased in violence, until it blew with the force of a hurricane. Foremost among the disasters is the reported loss of her Majesty's gun boat Lively, Lieut. Welch, which had been dispatched in search of the missing trawling smacks from the Humber. It is stated that the Lively had been driven ashore at Texel, and that Mr. Herne, the engineer, was drowned ; the rest of the crew being saved. On the receipt of the news the Lords of the Admiralty directed her Majesty's steamer Medusa, lying at Sheerness, to proceed to the mouth of the Texel, with the hope of getting the gun-boat off. No satisfactory tidings had been gleaned of the seven or eight missing trawling smacks, except that the sterns of two small boats, bearing the names of the two vessels, "Richard and Harry, of Hull," and "Kingston, of Hull," have been washed ashore near Texel, justifying the worst fears as to their fate. Two steamers are reported to have been blown ashore. One was the Auguste Louise, screw steam ship, which was on a voyage from Hamburg to Rotterdam. Like the Wilhelmsborg emigrant ship, she was cast upon the Terschelling, some three or four miles out from the island. A large Swedish ship, called the Sumatra, Captain Brundin, which was on a voyage from London to Gothenburg, was lost near Vlieland, and, with the exception of two or three, the whole of her crew perished. The John Margrieta, bound to Zwolle, from the Tyne, stranded and then sank off Harlingen, and of those on board only the pilot and a boy are stated to have been saved. A long list of vessels wrecked has been posted, and in several instances the crews are reported to be missing. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dennis Ahern | Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild, Irish Maritime News Acton, Mass. | http://immigrantships.net/newsarticles/newsarticles.html - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
