At the beginning of the project I started making a list of names of employees who had worked at Campbeltown Shipyard during its lifespan at Trench Point, based on information we gathered from you, on the Facebook page. I’m grateful to Billy McLean who took the printed list away and filled in a lot of the blanks and also to Douglas McNaught, who has recently given us some missing names. It’s entirely possible that there are still some misspelt names, or inaccuracies, so I would like those of you who can see any errors or can fill in any missing blanks to get in touch and let me know by the end of November 2019. Many thanks in advance!
