I've just added another fifty-three Milford registrations from the period
1926-45, for which the relevant Registers of Fishing Vessels are missing
from Haverfordwest Record Office, but which are listed in the Register of
Ships, where changes of ownership are recorded. There may still be a couple
of vessels missing, but the lists are now as complete as I can make them at
present.
Over the next few weeks and months, I intend to add:
- more details of losses;
- a list of all Milford registered sailing trawlers and fishing
boats over 15 grt (many of which sailed out of Tenby);
- a list of all Milford registered small craft (under 15 grt);
- many more names to the lists of skippers;
- photographs of Milford trawlers;
- details of the funnel colours of Milford fishing companies.
In the meantime, I'll continue to make additions and corrections as new
information comes in from visitors to the website.
