Re: William Francis Thomas Does anyone have any information on the Training Ship "Clio" I have a relative listed as an Instructor below from the 1881 census: William THOMAS 46 Gosport, Hampshire, England Instructor Pensioner I have seen many pictures of the boat and crew on the Internet but have yet to see one with names. He is my great great grandfather and would love any information. Thanks! Aaron Reid Toronto, Canada --------------------------------- Post your free ad now! Yahoo! Canada Personals

Dear Aaron Have you subscribed to the Mariners mailing list? They have pretty strict rules about what subjects are discussed (ships crews mostly) but the people on the list are very knowledgable and may be able to help. You can try this website http://www.hotkey.net.au/~jwilliams4/mariner1.htm or send a 'subscribe' message to [email protected] I can't find this mailing list on the Rootsweb mailing list site http://lists.rootsweb.com/ and I have no idea where I found it, but I spent quite a while on the list and it was really useful. With luck you'll come up with someone who knows all about training ships. Look at the Miscellaneous section of the mailing lists they have a wealth of information.
