Vessel Todd head
Hi i am looking for Jimmy Allan. He worked on the merchant navy vessel the Todd Head in 1974. He was from Huntley, Aberdeen and was approx 20 years in 1974, and was docked in Grimsby. I am also interested if anyone can advise how to find info such as shipping lists for this vessel. Thankyou

Re: Vessel Todd head
Hello Amanda
Unfortunately as he was only in the MN from 1974 there will be no records kept, as they stopped record keeping in 1972.
However an Email to the National Archives in Kew, or even possibly the Southampton Maritime Section Archives may bring forth some information.
As for the Ship in question, the Guildhall Library in London, should have the Voyage Cards for the Ship, again an Email to them would i am sure get you started.
Cheers
A wee bit of info on the Ship
Tod Head – ClydeMaritime
Or i wonder if this may be the one , according to the dates he served. Cheers
