• Notes

  Alexander and his Sons continued to build boats and do repair work at the old Cruikshank Corner. Alexander passed away on 13th February 1917. His sons Bill, Tyz, Ern and Jack (John) continued to work together there until the partnership was dissolved 2nd July 1918. Then Bill, old Ern, Jack (John) continued the business other brothers helped at times, they built the "Queenscliff" Rescue boat in the 1920's. The business moved from Cruikshank corner in the 1930's due to the new bridge being the last boatbuilding business to move. [ Word doc.
