Lloyds Registery of Shipping 1884-1885 No. 3 Official Number 78216 lists the ship MONA , wood, salted, Master J. Callow, tons 70 built by Restorick in 1878 5 months. Owner J. Kaman, Port Cstitwn, I. O. M., Port of registry Bideford; years assigned 12; character A1.
Deaths 1884-5 list J. Callow, Ship Mona, 3012.
I would like to know whom to contact on the I.O.M. who might search local records for information regarding this. I believe J. Callow to be John Banks Callow born Douglas, IOM 1854/55; son of Sylvester Callow b. 1816 who was the son of George Callow (Douglas) and Jane Banks of Howstrake IOM.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, please advise of charges incurred. John Banks Callow is my husband's maternal g.grandfather.
