Can you help with this mystery?
A request for information has come in asking for possible information of a model of a ship called The Alberta that has been in the family that has no link to the Mosher family, or does it? The model pictured is in a state of disrepair but someone may know a bit more. The model was made by Johannes Marinus Van Rooy or Harry Van Rooy. The ship itself has been possibly identified as a Tern Schooner built in 1888 by Thomas Mosher in Avondale. It was wrecked near Cuba in 1902.
The model would have had a glass dome which is missing. Avon River Heritage Museum in Avondale has been contacted and The National Maritime Museum in Cornwell, England.
