Hi Vern many thanks for prompt reply.The person Iam trying to help claims that her Gr Great grandfather
was master of the S.S Deva in 1861 he was William Lamplough.And thinks the ship belonged to a company from either Goole-Hull-or Grimsby.

[Doc Vernon]

Wonder if this has anything to do with this person!?
Could well be !
Cheers
