I have only just noticed your mail regarding your Great Grandfathers death on the collier GATESGARTH, of Liverpool, which was posted missing on passage from Partington to Penarth with gas coal.

I have recently added a page to my website www.shipwrecks-wales.co.uk which gives a little information on the loss of this ship.

The site is searchable and the page is called COAL TO PENARTH
