Hi
I found this site really interesting for any one who is interested the London mint is selling sets of 3 coins in a display box with a book on this disaster .the coins are certified to be the worlds deepest treasure ever recorded.
I purchased a set because of the very interesting story and it is a part of the history behind the journey of the people involved in the tragic sinking of the ship .this is not a sales pitch I was interested to see what had happened so I googled Ss city of Cairo and came across this very interesting and informative site.

This website is a phenomenal labor of love and wonderful dedication to all the survivors and victims of the SS City of Cairo sinking. Thank you Hugh MacLean for ensuring these remarkable stories live on.

I really appreciate your thoroughness and generosity, Hugh. Thank you. I'm doing a book for Yale University Press about civilian women in WW2 shipwrecks. Being able to digitally access Gladys Usher's story and understand her context is invaluable. Thank you.
Jo.

What an excellent site - Colin Keith, whose father Robert was on the SS City of Cairo, is my father's cousin and it was so interesting to learn a little more about him.

Hello Hugh, thanks for your message on Ship Nostalgia! I have found this website very interesting and a great help in my research for my book. Is it okay if I mention you in the acknowledgments of the book?

Regards,
William

Hi Hugh, I was looking for an image of the St. Ronan sunk 1959 and saw your post.

I have the original newspaper article. One of the people that died was a second cousin of mine. Let me know and I'll send you more.
Cheers,
