Just a note re the Killam Bros

Hi F and F,
As I write this watching the band playing  Country music ( the wifi is strongest here) a little more about Killam Bros. John Killam built the first vessel in1788 and then his son Thomas Killam founded the company in 1849  and they made their mark on the maritime trade. Ship Chandlery,Coal Merchants, Ship Builders,Importers and Traders. Real entrepreneurs !
Quite something for this small little town!
