History
Thyra Menier was built for the Donald Steamship Company, Bristol.[4] The United Kingdom Official Number 127100 was allocated.[5] In 1915, she was under charter to Henri Menier and had been sub-chartered to the Canadian-American Steamship Corporation, New York. The Admiralty requisitioned her, but her charterers objects, claiming that the requisition could not take place as the ship was not in British waters. At the time, the ship was in dry dock in New York.[6]
In 1918, Thyra Menier was sold to F Lecoeuvre, Belgium and renamed Luis Pidal. She served until 1925 when she was sold to Puglisi & Tomasini, Italy and was renamed Bellini.[1] In 1928, she was sold to August Bolten, Germany and was renamed Bollan.[1] Her port of registry was Hamburg and the Code Letters RHCT were allocated.[2] On 1 February 1930, Bollan departed Swansea, Wales for Sables[where?]. Whilst awaiting the tide, an explosion in her No. 1 hold blew off the hatch covers.[7] In 1934, her code letters were changed to DHCR.[8] In 1936,[1] Bollan was sold to Reunert & Co GmbH. She was placed under the management of Fisser & Van Doornum, Emden and was renamed Lina Fisser.[9]
In 1940, Germany claimed that British aircraft had attempted to bomb Lina Fisser in the North Sea.[10] Lina Fisser was seized by the Allies in May 1945 at Kiel, passed to the MoWT and renamed Empire Conderton.[1] Her port of registry was changed to London and the Code Letters GMWD were allocated. She regained her Official Number 127100. She was placed under the management of the Alliance Marine Transport Co Ltd. Empire Conderton was recorded as 1,558 GRT, 847 NRT.[3] In 1947, she was sold to J P Hadoulis Ltd, London and renamed Marchmont. In 1952, she was sold to A Moschakis, London and renamed Irene M. She was sold in 1955 to Tampa Shipping Ltd, Nova Scotia. Irene M was sold in 1957 to Marine Industries Ltd, Montreal. She was scrapped later that year at Sorel, Quebec.[1]
