hi I have just found this as I am reasearching my partners family tree, John Cattel Morton was his great, great great grandfather, not sure exactly how many greats back. I was wondering if any of you would be able to point me in the right direction for more information on the SS Tangier as I am finding it hard to trace.

Hello and welcome to rootschat.
If you look back on previous pages of this post most of the relevant information about the vessel TANGIER such as her owners, builders etc are there, even a painting of her.
The only wrong info is that her crew agreements are not stored (or have been lost) at the Maritime History Archive in Newfoundland.
Her 1884 crew agreements are at Kew http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C2478773 and her 1885 crew agreements may be stored at NMM Greenwich.
What information in particular are you looking for?
