JÜRGEN FROMMANN K.G.

F11
image by Jorge Candeias, 11 March 1999

Mitchell gives the funnel and flag under Jürgen Frommann, but Rosanoski questions whether the flag merely clarifies the funnel: its diamond lacks the F, and Mitchell does not outline the cross in black. The flag panel appears on Friedrich G. Frommann’s website, and a table flag is also recorded under that name. The FOTW image was labelled Herhard Frommann und Söhne, changed to Gerhard and later reverted, a name history Rosanoski disputes. Photographs of Seeve and Aue do not show a house flag flying.

Jürgen and Gerhard Frommann bought Süderelv in June 1964 and sold it on 1 June 1969. The FOTW comment renders the names as Gerthard and Süderely and assumes the brothers were Friedrich’s sons. Jürgen became the principal shipping operator, later listed as Jürgen Frommann K.G. He appears to have ceased owning ships around the end of the 1980s but continued operating Friedrich G. Frommann’s vessels until Seevetal was sold in 1998.
