"Adolphus Attersoll's brother John Attersoll served in the Coastguard Service after the Baltic War. He was a shipmate of Mr. George Read, Chief Officer of the Deal Coastguard. However, John Attersoll served mainly in the Hastings Region, rising to Chief Officer." (J.B.) Can anyone identify the members of the crew? Click here for an enlargement of the central portion of the picture. In her book (Deal in Old Photographs) June Broady describes Early Morn as a "cat boat" - a small lugger. There is a similar photograph in the book, taken in 1876, with the crew standing in front of the boat. |
