James Oldham (1801-1890)
1891 Obituary [1]
. . . . Mr. Oldham constructed several bridges in Holderness, and in 1867 and 1868 he made a survey with reference to the land above tidal influence. He was the Government Inspector of Steamers for the Port of Hull for many years, and his knowledge of seafaring life proved of value to him in fulfilling the duties of this post. He also acted as Surveyor of the Garrison Ground until the office became extinct through the absorption of the land by the ever-growing docks of the town. . . . [more]
