    My Great Great Grandfather was Coastguard Boatsman attached to this vessel between 1879 and 1899 … based at Union Hall, Castletownend, Crookhaven, Baltimore and Ballycroneen

      Dear Gordon:

      This is fascinating – I’ve never been sure how exactly “guardships” functioned and how they interfaced with the coastguards. Have you adny further details about your ancestor’s service?

      Best Wishes: Antoine
