Hartlepool-built Mohacsfield - Mountby - Runswick

The story of three Hartlepool-built ships during the First World War.
The “Heroism and Heartbreak” Project aims to rediscover and retell the stories of more than 260 Hartlepool sailors who lost their lives during the First World War - but we need your help. If you have a photograph, letter or diary from a Hartlepool family member who served in the Merchant Navy, Royal Navy or local Fishing Fleets during WW1 please contact us by e-mail: ([e-mail]), telephone: [phone], or by calling in to Hartlepool Central Library.
All of these stories, together with more than 9,000 photographs and a great deal of other fascinating facts and information relating to the port town of Hartlepool, can be viewed free of charge on our website www.hhtandn.org
