Back in the late 1930s to the end of the war, my dad Ted Thompson on the right hand side, with two local friends. They were all Merchant seaman together. I wonder if anyone could recognise the other two?
Hi Dave. I just wondered if you are related to a late Leslie Thompson? Only he was a Tilbury man, and he came from a big family there.Only he used to work in a lot of the local pubs in Tilbury and sometimes all so help out as a ‘pot man’.

Sandra,
Your Dad by any chance – did he have a brother Gilbert, who was also in the Merchant Navy, that lived in Ottowa Road and was Married to Dawcus? It’s a long shot, but worth a go?
