Thyge Andersen Enevoldsen

A Respected Man

"Sir - I feel it incumbent upon me to express in true words, simple though they may be, how deeply sorry I was to learn of the tragic death of Mr Enevoldson, Skipper of the trawler Lord Deramore. Skipper Enevoldson was beloved by all who knew him, for his exceptional quality of modesty, blended with human sympathy and courage. A man who despised publicity, he was one of Hull's most competent skippers.
Skipper Enevoldson died as he would have wished, on the sea that he so dearly loved, and in his words of good wishes for his son's safety he revealed his true character of unselfishness at the very last".

Indre Mission Society completes sale of the Ebenezer Mission House

After 106 years the Ebenezer Mission House at Holmsland Klitvej, Hvide Sande has been sold by the Indre Mission Society to Gadshill DK Filial, the Danish branch of the UK company Gadshill Ltd. 

Gadshill Ltd is 100 per cent owned by Charles Enevoldson, the Grandson of Thyge Andersen Enevoldsen.

In 1910 Thyge Andersen Enevoldson donated the necessary funds to enable the Mission House to be built to honour his mother and father.  Since that time the house has served as a place of worship for the local community.  

However following a recent decision by the local church members to build a new church in the town centre the old building was no longer required.  

In order to preserve the building, 63 year old Charles Enevoldson agreed to purchase the house from the Mission Society and the sale was completed in July 2016.

Mark Temple, the Grandson of George Temple who served and sadly died onboard the Lord Deramore has contacted the site.  This is what he has to say.

My name is Mark Temple, my grandfather was George Temple, he was the 22 year old Trimmer who also died onboard the Lord Deramore and was close in age to Harold Enevoldson. I read with much interest the material you have posted with regard to the trawlers, it's all so tragic. I would like to pay my respects to my grandfather although I doubt there is a grave of any description. When I was a child I heard a story that there was a grave stone on "some island" but this seams unlikely. Would you know? 
I gather moves are afoot to establish a memorial at St Andrew's Quay, Hull. I will chase up on that later. I now live in Australia.


Best wishes to Mark and a big thank you for contacting us.
