Am trying to track an ancestor of the above name, said to be a Master mariner.
He was in Northumberland/Tynemouth area at least in the 1970's but is said to have returned there.
Any way known to trace him, possibly through Master Mariner records?
My Organ ancestors originate from northumberland in the Tynemouth/North Shields area. Can you give me any more details about your Billy Organ or any of his family?

Hi Gail
That is absolutely all we have got about "our" Billy Organ. I was researching for a friend, and all she knows is what I have described previously. Just rumours in her family, but apparently based on some substance.
Sorry I cannot give more
