Gloria's comments on Facebook:
So, 101 years ago on Jan. 20, 1922 the lives of my dad and his family changed forever. Their sole breadwinner Job Dawe was washed overboard while on a passage from St. John's to Lisbon, Portugal. They ran into a storm and my grandfather was asked to go up and tie the riggings on the mast and a wave came up and washed him overboard, his body was never found. His wife May (Noel) never remarried and she raised 6 children with the help of her family. Sadly we have no photos of our grandfather Job Dawe who was born in Greenspond on 21 Aug 1876 to William Job Daw(e) and Lucy Anne White. Job was just 45 years old when he died. ??
