Lloyd's Register of London gives under the heading SHIPOWNERS, Foreman as Master on the Denmark Hill from 1822/23 to 1830/31. Under the heading UNDERWRITERS we have Foreman as Master 1820/21 and J. Foreman as Master 1822/23 to 1831/1832, and J. Foreman as Owner 1822/23 to 1823/24.
Described as 'farmer' 1825, 1828. [Ray FOREMAN; Lloyd's Register of Shipping.]
[Note: Storm’s Family Tree Reference: I received the following note from Storm REECE (2010). 'Regarding John Foreman's birthplace in Alnwick, Northumberland, I have this information from my father. Dad was very good friends with Jean Foreman and I imagine that he got this information from her, as she knew quite a bit about the family. I had an interest in family history from an early age and often asked my father questions and he wrote down a lot of information for me that he knew. All he wrote was John Foreman, Alnwick, Northumberland. Dad died way back in 1988 and I have used the notes he left me to help me with research. So far everything he wrote has been accurate.']
