Good Day Re: Brig "Argos" ON: 59758 - YOB: 1870 - POB: PEI I'm attempting to discover the fate of the Brig "Argos" which was acquired by William R Wheelock (Shanghai Tug & Lighter Co) and who changed her registry from that of Sydney, NSW, to Shanghai sometime during 1881/82. As per the 1883 MNL listing the Owner was recorded as one John Sharp of Shanghai but by 1888 she no longer appears. The National Archive's BT 368 contains files of the Shanghai Registry covering the period 1875 to 1919 but whilst various vessels are listed up to and including 1880 no vessels are recorded during in the period 1880 to 1919. Can anyone shed any light as to why there should be such a gap? Thanks Rgds William Davies email: [email protected]
