  • Readers of This Family History Forum May Remember Seeing an Article About an Omission to the Eyemouth War Memorial and How
    John Willis and the “Cutty Sark” Tea Clipper By Walter V. Holden Readers of this Family History Forum may remember seeing an article about an omission to the Eyemouth War Memorial and how the writer Joan McGiveron (née Spouse) was proposing to visit the unveiling of the correction in July 2008, some 90 years after her grandfather John Spouse had been Killed in Action at Arras on the 21st.July 1918. Joan had researched her grandfather’s career, from when he was born in Eyemouth, to his death in World War 1. The omission was spotted by Joan's cousin David Spouse of Duns. David, after consultation with Joan and with the assistance of the British Legion, made it his duty to correct this omission. Fortuitously, there was sufficient room on the memorial inscriptions. Joan made the journey from Vancouver to Eyemouth to honour her grandfather’s name with the help of friends, relations and the British Legion, she fulfilled her duty on that July date. The unveiling ceremony was reported in the Berwick Advertiser at the time. Joan McGiveron is a keen family historian and without a doubt her expertise helped her fulfil her promise to the grandfather she never knew. However behind her fulfilment, she unearthed a more unique piece of maritime history when a query arrived from a descendant of John Willis Sr. of Eyemouth , asking Joan if there was a family connection. This story deserves to be recorded on the Burnmouth Community family history forum. Joan’s Great Great Great Grandparents were William Willis and Mary Maltman both of Eyemouth.

  • George Washington Wilson (1823-1893)
    George Washington Wilson (1823-1893) Photographically innovative and entrepreneurial in business, Wilson was the most notable, successful and prolific stereo-photographer in Scotland and perhaps the entire UK. Having trained in Edinburgh as an artist, he worked as a miniature portrait painter and art teacher in Aberdeen from 1848. He started experimenting with photography in 1852, probably realising that it could potentially supplant his previous profession. In a short-lived partnership with Hay, he first exhibited stereoviews in 1853 at the Aberdeen Mechanics' Institution. A commission to photograph the construction of Balmoral Castle in 1854-55 led to a long royal association. His photos were used in the form of engravings for Queen Victoria's popular book “My Highland Journal”. His best-selling carte-de-visite of her on a pony held by Brown (judiciously cropped to remove other superfluous retainers) fuelled the gossip surrounding this relationship. His portrait studio in Aberdeen provided steady cashflow and in 1857, to promote his studio, he produced a print grouping together famous Aberdonians, one of the earliest ever examples of a photo-collage. He soon recognised that stereoviews were the key to prosperity and by 1863 had a catalogue of over 400 views from all across the UK, selling them in a wide variety of outlets including railway kiosks and inside cathedrals. His artistic training helped him compose picturesque and beautiful images, but he was also an innovative technician, experimenting on improving photographic techniques, chemistry and apparatus, working closely with camera and lens manufacturers. He was among the very first to publish “instantaneous” views, ranging from a bustling Princes Street, Edinburgh to a charming view of children paddling in the sea, both dating from 1859.

  • An Anthology of Maritime Reading Experiences
    An Anthology of Maritime Reading Experiences A book that has been read at sea has a near claim on our friendship, and is a thing one is loath to part with, or change, even for a better book. But the well-tried friend of many voyages is, oh, so hard to part with at sea. A resting-place in the solemn sea of sameness—in the trackless ocean, marked only by imaginary lines and circles—is a cheerless spot to look to; yet, how many have treasures there! (Voyage of the Liberdade, by Joshua Slocum. Boston, Robinson & Stephenson, 1890. p. 30) Allen, Everett S. Children of the Light: The Rise and Fall of New Bedford Whaling and the Death of the Arctic Fleet. Boston: Little, Brown, 1973. A somewhat elegiac tale of the decline of whaling and New Bedford, contrasted with descriptions of the life of the Inuit, before and after the coming of the whalers to the Beaufort Sea area. Main focus at end is on the disastrous season at Pt. Barrow of the whaling fleet which abandoned over 25 ships, but managed to rescue over 1200 whalemen. p. 89: When a library was donated to New Bedford by the Friends Society in 1813, a committee of members went over the list of books and discarded many, such as several foremost English poets and Shakespeare's works, as unfit for young people to read. This opposition to certain aspects of culture and the arts, implemented by the influential Quaker leadership, was dominant in the New Bedford area for many years.
