Fishing and associated records
This is a page from the Hull Council Website, it gives great detail on Hull Fishing, please let me know if it was of any use to you.
==================
Hull has a rich fishing and maritime history and many seamen have passed through the port of Hull. Fishermen and whalers have been operating out of Hull since the 16th century and over the years communities and institutions have developed in Hull to aid and assist sailors and their families.
This information illustrates what records relating to the fishing industry can be found in the archives, including records of welfare organisations set up to help the families of sailors and indicates where records relating to seamen can be found.
Should you wish to view any of the records held at the archives service, please ensure you make an appointment with us before visiting because some of our material is stored off site and space in the search room is limited. We are open Tuesday to Thursday 9.30am - 4.45pm.
