Hi Dave I am very new to all of this so please bear with me having spent all of my life at sea ( joined RN at 14 in 1963 I've spent all my life at sea 12 years submarines and 25 years diving in the North sea before moving into diving management mainly at sea middle east) now finding a bit more time on my hands doing some family research.
My father passed away when I was 10 years old, mum when I was 16 and in the middle east so I know very little of family history but what I have found out amazes me!
So here we go my GG granfather was Thomas Evans Magazine Lifeboat coxn (2 silver medal) his son William1Silver medal born 1841 Liverpool pilot and so many other Liverpool pilot in my family tree I find I hard to Belive I know from your site you will place them and fast. One of the the reasons I am contacting you about is a George Evans Born In 1854 son of Henry Evans and Barbara Ledder on the 1871 census he is listed as apprentice Pilot but then disappears from sight do you have any info on him
