Hello Sue (in the UK); Re: ''He lived in Saint John where he built ships such as "Effingham", "Howard", "Anna", and "Whim". My G/uncle, Peter Haggerty Jr, Captained the "Horace Bell" a ship purportedly built in Saint John NB Canada during mid19C. His routes were mainly along the USA east coast & the Carribean during the early 1860's. Did your William Howard happen to have any involvement with the ship "Horace Bell"? Sorry, I know nothing of the Howards. .............. Ed
