The infobox and table say that one of the builders form these sg hips was William Laird & Son of Birkenhead. Is this what the sources here actually say? William Laird was long dead by 1900, as was his son; AFAIK the company at that time was called Laird Brothers. Can anyone shed any light on this? Xyl 54 (talk) 11:41, 29 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
