annabanana628 Posted 22 February , 2017 Share Posted 22 February , 2017 (edited) Thank you Ray Searching. My grand uncle (my grandfather's brother) was Michael O'Keefe. He was a fireman on the S.S. Castlebar. My dad was thrilled to see the photo. Michael O'Keefe is the second man from the right (standing). Thank you Mr. Bryding for photo and everyone else for all the information. I am doing a family tree and this is great information. Regards, Ann Edited 10 March , 2017 by annabanana628 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinBattle Posted 22 February , 2017 Share Posted 22 February , 2017 Just to note there are 13 crew shown; if a Crawford brother was left behind, then there are 12 casualties listed.... So they're all there, just who is who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annabanana628 Posted 10 March , 2017 Share Posted 10 March , 2017 Hello everyone, I was just wondering if anyone knows if there are anymore pictures out there relating to the SS Castlebar? Thanks! Ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Una Posted 6 March , 2018 Share Posted 6 March , 2018 Hello Ann and Dankane, Just browsing and want to let you of a trip to Fanad Head next weekend (11 March, 2018). There will be a church service at 12.00 in Leatbeg which will mention the crew of SS Castlebar. Some family members of crew attending. We will then visit Fanad Head. It will mark the 100 year anniversary. If interested let me know. Úna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castlebar will be remembered, I am sure it was a beautiful ceremony.. Since finding all this information and my dad seeing the crew picture that was provided that he never knew existed, as well as the Tower Hill Memorial which he also had never known about..(even having visited London many times on his way to Cork) has intrigued him as well as myself. My hope is that I will be taking a trip from New York to Ireland next year and will definitely make Fanad Head a stop on my trip. Thanks to this site and all the wonderful people who were willing to share information regarding the S.S. Castlebar, gave my dad whose uncle was aboard that ship, a piece of history and a picture from that history that he would otherwise never have had. I am hoping he will also make the trip with me. Thank you Una for letting me know about that service and to all the other members who have provided so much wonderful information!

Crawford Duffin Posted 15 September , 2022 Share Posted 15 September , 2022 On 18/11/2009 at 19:18, Wesley Wright said: Anyone have information on SS"Catlebar" (Belfast)--Where was she lost?. Unable to find out any information-apart from the 10 men who were lost on 13/03/1918. Wesley Wright On 05/01/2015 at 18:03, Guest dankane said: I also have only just joined the forum and am interested in William Crawford, the chief engineer. His merchant navy record gives his last place of abode as Fourscoreacre, Cairncastle. Although he also had a brother, Alexander, at sea, their mother had died in 1911, so the above story about one brother returning home for this reason may relate to someone or something else. Does William Crawford appear in the picture of the crew? The family would love to see this. William Crawford was my grandfather he had a family one girl and two boys Jennie William Robert Jennie my mother was the oldest she was eight years old when my grandfather was drowned my grandmother never married again my mother married Stanley Duffin and had a family of three boys six girls we lived at fourscoreacre my grannies moved to a house at closeburn bay ballygally Robert became a sea captain and served on shell tankers and the head line boats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
