  1. More snippets. From "the love of strangers" by Nile Green.
  2. Derek Thanks for this, I hadn't used the NLS mapping tool before, it's very good. I've just started researching them. I'll be trying to find out if any of their boats are still in existence, the Black Country Museum may be able to help. Do you know of any other sources of historical information on canal boats?
  3. Hi all. I'm researching my ancestors the Hortons, who built iron canal boats in the 17th and 18th century. I have some info on the Aetna (or Etna) Ironworks run by Joshua and William Horton which advertised boats and punts amongst other things. There were a few other Hortons running ironworks in the Smethwick/West Bromwich area including a Thomas Horton of Spon Lane Ironworks in West Brom. Any info on these manufacturers would be very welcome. Adrian Alford
