Statue by Neil Hadlock depicting a family from Europe emigrating to America via Hull.

This statue is located on the reclaimed land at "The Bullnose" where ships waited for high tide before entering Humber Dock.

Neil Hadlock's sculpture depicts a family from Northern Europe having left ship before continuing to Paragon Station then on by train to Liverpool then by ship to America.

Over 2,200,000 people passed through Hull and other Humber Ports to America between 1836 - 1914.

Statue donated to Kingston Upon Hull by the Sea Trek Foundation of America as they retraced their ancestors journey in Tall Ships from Northern Europe.

Voyage

Voyage and a sister sculpture in Vik on the south coast of Iceland symbolise the bond created by more than a thousand years of sea trading between Hull and Iceland.

They are a tribute to fishermen and other seafarers who, over centuries, have braved the perils of the sea. They are also a memorial to those whose lives have been claimed by the hostile waters of the North Atlantic.

Thirty years after the ending of the last of the cod wars both sculptures were commissioned to commemorate the long standing links between our two countries.

Both figures face out to sea to emphasise that the waters dividing our islands are also the trade routes that unite.

True Love

In 1847 Memiadluk and Uckaluk arrived in Hull aboard the Truelove, a local whaling ship.

Visitors from Greenland

In 1847 Captain John Parker brought a couple back from the Nyatlick in the Cumberland Straits to Hull on the 'Truelove'. The couple called Memiadluk and Uckaluk were brought to England to highlight the poor conditions in their homeland and after arriving in Hull they took part in talks in Manchester and York.

Before their departure plaster casts were made of their heads as well as the head of Captain Parker and these are now displayed in the Hull Maritime Museum. Memiadluk and Uckaluk were given a variety of gifts by their hosts before they left but unfortunately on the return journey to Cumberland South Uckaluk died after there was an outbreak of Measles on board.

The sculpture is at the approach to the tidal surge barrier on the west side of the River Hull
