Fannie Eleanor Williams[edit]

I came across Fannie Eleanor Williams earlier. I noticed that there was a link to Orontes but it is a disambiguation page. I figured that the Orontes was the name of a ship and I found five of them, SS Orontes and HMS Orontes (4 ships) but none of them look correct. I also looked for articles to link back to Williams and used Springvale Botanical Cemetery and Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research. I was wondering if you could think of some others. Cheers. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 09:29, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've found the RMS Orontes, and I think it's the right ship, since it was used as an Australian troop carrier in the Great War. I don't have a lot of information about it, but what I do have is reliable, since it comes from the Australian War Memorial, among other pages. Is it OK if I just put up a stub? I don't know a lot about ships and don't have a lot of time to do the research! Catherine McLean (talk) 01:45, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That looks like the correct one. Sure make the stub. I know nothing about ships either and you have the sources. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 10:43, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
