Fred Strange – see 1949 picture when he was 80 so presumably born 1879.
Also skipper, his last ship, of “Cock of the Walk”. Said nver to have been surpassed at handing a brage. Quiet, even tempered, never flurried. Known as “The Toff” as he was always smartly dressed with a neatly clipped beard. Once went to Bantry Bay in the Moss Rose. (Ref B10).

Brother of Tom Strange, first to take a barge to the Shetlands.
