  1. My father, Robert (Bobby) Clinton Freeman worked for Parker Brothers. He was the youngest man to make Captain at age 17. in the Country. He worked there for years, then went to Kelso in Galveston. The Port of Galveston called upon him numerous times to steer ships around other ships blocking the Port. I member as a child, he worked 36/hrs straight moving one ship in getting on another to move it out. I believe he was one of the first to use radar. Sadly, he passed at age 48 from Cancer. He loved his job.
