Hi Carol. It is unlikely to be a port in Norfolk, there are few large enough for a ship- Lynn, Yarmouth and Wells ore or less does it. Norfolk's Dunkirk is near Aylsham near the river Bure and is one of those places - like Little London- which is an end or hamlet of a village. Why it is called Dunkirk I have no idea.

It seems such a short voyage that it must be close to the Tyne although most of the mariners on board were Norfolk men. Knew the list would be able to help. So glad it seems to be back to normal. > > Sent from my iPhone > >> On 27 Oct 2016, at 16:46, Carol Wordingham <wcarol4@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> >> Whilst researching maritime records I have a ship leaving the Tyne and arriving in Dunkirk the following day. Does anyone know where this might have been? The year was 1881 and I just cannot find anywhere on the coast that looks likely. >> Sent from my iPhone > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NORFOLK-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
