1910, 3554grt
Bartram & Sons, Sunderland (217) as CEDAR BRANCH for the Nautilus Steam Shipping Co. (Ritson) of Sunderland
A late application of the bowsprit favoured by this shipbuilder and owner
1932 AENOS, Greek
Sunk by torpedo and gunfire from U.38 on 17/10/1940 in 59N 13W
Sorel for Manchester with wheat.

The vessel with the white riband on Bartram's fitting-out quay bears a good resemblance to AGIOS GEORGIOS IV, launched under yard number 279 on 14/4/1938 and completed in 7/1938, and a photo can be found in 'Record 16' at page 260. She also was a war loss, being sunk by gunfire from a Japanese submarine off Madagascar on 8/6/1942. The other vessel could be one of the following yard numbers, LODESTONE (280) or SUVA

Just found her in the files as CEDAR BRANCH
