Amazing Grace was written by a former slave trader John Newton.. Once sailing a ship full of slaves from Africa his ship was hit by a fierce storm... Newton ...
My pleasure. I'm not a religious person but Amazing Grace never fails to move me.
I would loved to have seen those ships. You should be proud of your family history which is deeply connected to Ludington. To bad invasive species such as the local law and past pests like Shay from outside the area are trying to tangle a web of deceit and corruption.

Thanks for sharing Willy, beautiful Gospel music. Btw, my great grandfather had 3 schooners like that, and also 3 masts, in the late 1800's & early 1900s that sailed Lk. Michigan as freighters for anything like veggies, and other cargos from all points to mostly Milwaukee and Chicago, thanks.
