If you know of a Gloucester link that would be appropriate to add to this page,
please e-mail David Colby Young

• Wooden Ships, Iron Men, Gloucester Ladies, and Man's Best Friend
• I believe that Roberta Misuraca's page "Down to the Sea in Ships" would be an appropriate link to your (Old) Gloucester page, as it is a listing of over 3000 men lost at sea over the 1800s and 1900s.
