Hi I am helping a friend locate an ancestor.

The person was Andrew Carroll a Ship Repairer. I have been told he had a ship repairers yard on the dock road in the 1950s and moved to Regent Road.

Thanks Colette,

Two look promising.

Dock Attendant and Ships Scaler.

Could have been early days.

Cheers

Hello Teresa

My husband worked along the Dock Road for a ship repair company and remembers Andrew Carroll's.He said if he remembers correctly Carroll's moved to the top end of Regent Street/Great Howard Street [ not Road ] and it ceased trading about 20yrs ago.[ish] It's now a BMW car repair garage.

Hi
From the addresses you have been given
I believe the person you are researching could be my great grandfather or GG Grandfather, anyway my grandfather was John Carroll and ran the business in the 50-60s, I used to go to the offices with him sometimes when I was a kid.

Hi again
Just thought I would clarify things, the Andrew Carroll I am related started the company Andrew Carroll Ltd who were ship scrapers and scalers and had offices in Regent St and then moved to Park Lane. I do not know a great deal about Andrew but do know about John Carroll my grandfather who ran the business.
