Many thanks Christine but that produced zilch too. I would have thought there would be some sort of register for dock workers somewhere. May write to National Dock Board (my dad is an ex docker at 90 still getting a pension from them!) I believe he said in their last correspondence they said only a few thousand dockers left.

Ive done a lot of googling with not much luck, does anyone know if there are records of London Dockers from 1800 onwards anywhere please?
