Description |
T & J. Harrison's Iron Ship Philiosopher (sic) passing Holyhead on her maiden voyage to India, 19 June 1857 Upon George Brown's death in 1853, the Harrisons took over the business under the name of Thos. & Jas. Harrison. In 1857 they bought their first iron hulled sailing ship, the Philosopher and the firm began the tradition of naming their ships after trades and professions. In 1862 they successfully started sending sailing ships to India, the Far East and to Central and South America, with regular sailings being advertised in 1863. |
