My Mother was born in September 1921 on the S.S. Scandinavian. The surname of the captain of the ship on that voyage was “Hamilton.” Does anyone know where I could get more information on Capt. Hamilton such as his full name, information on his career or a picture of him? Any information wold be appreciated.
