  • Burnmouth Disaster 1853 the 1881 Disaster Was Not the Only Tragedy To
    Burnmouth Disaster 1853 The 1881 disaster was not the only tragedy to hit the Burnmouth community. When the ‘Lively’ sank on the 7th of January 1853 five women in Burnmouth and one in Eyemouth were left widowed, all with young children. The following News reports give an account of the disaster and more information can be found in Peter Aitchison’s ‘Children of the Sea. Berwick Advertiser 8th January 1853 (Saturday). BOAT LOST - SIX MEN DROWNED. Yesterday fore-noon (Friday) about eleven o' clock while the fishing boats belonging to Burnmouth were at the fishing grounds, about 15 miles from the shore, a sudden gale of wind came on, which raising the sea placed the entire fleet in considerable peril, and many of them were obliged to run for shelter without getting up their lines. We regret to state that one boat, the "Lively" of Burnmouth, was unsuccessful in reaching the shore, and being struck by a heavy sea swamped and disappeared with all on board. Another boat was within sight, but the disaster was completed before any assistance could be rendered. By this occurrence six men have met a watery grave, all of whom have left widows, and about 30 young children without their natural protector and provider. The sufferers were all young men, ranging from 30 to 40 years of age, and their names are: - Thomas Lauder, master; John Aitchison, William Martin, Alexander Anderson, William Spowes (sic). All these belonged to Burnmouth. John Cowe, belonging to Eyemouth, who had gone to sea as the substitute of one of the boat's crew, who was detained at home by indisposition.
