A question someone may be able to answer ?
On another site I belong to, a person is asking about a Capt Johnson of Rochester who saved the crew of another Schooner 'Audacious ' when it sprung a leak and sank.
The date was August /September 1857 reported in a newspaper. Capt Johnson was master of ' Father and Sons '( the schooners name ) I wouldn't have a clue where to look . The sinking seems to be in the Shields area .
I live in hopes x
