W. Starling Burgess Shipyard

Our biography William Starling Burgess covers the man's shipbuilding activity but does not name his shipyard. Merely: "In 1905 he established a yacht yard in Marblehead, Massachusetts and began designing and building yachts and boats." --P64 (talk) 21:34, 2 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Burgess Company founding

edit
second of two new sections posted at once -P64

I relocated our link to that biography William Starling Burgess from the purported shipyard name (unchanged) to the co-founding of "Burgess Company and Curtis, Inc." by W.S.B. and Curtis. At the same time, I made Frank H. Russell that company's third 1910 co-founder, as we say in the Burgess biography without providing a source. A source for 1910 founding should be provided in both articles, with correction if necessary. --P64 (talk) 21:34, 2 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
