12/2/2022

Email:
On 26 Nov. we received an email from Tacoma Washington: "​My grandfather was the captain or skipper of a boat called the General Pershing. It was based in Ballard Wa and it belonged to the Alaska Packers? I don’t know anything about boats but if your grandfather built this boat and it’s the same one, we have the original wheel from it. We wondered if you are interested in that? I can send you a picture. His name was Leland Stearns and it would have been in the 40’s maybe? 

Response:
Contact was made by phone and the likely hood of its connection to the General Pershing was established.
A Board Member, living in the Seattle area, made contact with its owner and made the arrangement to pick up the boat wheel.
