Cyrus Stanistreet - Empress of Australia
Quote from Ted Scaplehorn on 4 June 2019, 13:42We have received a query from a relative of Cyrus Stanistreet who, after wartime service in the Royal Navy, served as Deck Storekeeper in the Empress of Australia and was a model ship-maker of some renown (The Bulletin Vol 53 No 1 - 2009). His relative would like to know if any of his models have been preserved, perhaps in a museum? If anyone has any information about this (or anything related to Cyrus) could they please let me know and I'll pass it on or put them in direct touch if preferred.
