Welcome to this bilingual (Swedish-English) group blog by family members living on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, "the pond". Our interests range from the scientific to the eclectic, including gourmet food, horses, art and literature, computers, species in nature, history and iron, and photography. Three generations are posting here.
I found this poem about a occupation now long gone, a job my granddad had in that era. The poem was published about a month before the at the time worlds largest steam powered ship Titanic sank, in the march issue of "Technical World Magazine" of 1912.

Hi, Do you know if there is a list of ships or grandpa worked on? Maybe Dad has one. I thought that might be fun to know, and maybe some of them survived and became museum ships.
Not that I am aware of, but I think there are sources for one.
