Crew of the final voyage[edit] Loch Vennechar.

Captain W. Hawkins and Chief Officer James Priest

From left: D.S.M. Thompson, T. Pearce (apprentice) and J. Hadley
The first list of persons likely to be on the ship at the time of her loss appeared in the news media in late September 1905. This list which contained 23 names of individuals who could be either crew or passengers was compiled from letters waiting for collection by the ship at the offices of George Wills & Co., the ship's agent in Adelaide.[21] A subsequent newspaper article advised that apprentices S.C. Brown and Robert Andrews had respectively transferred from Loch Vennachar to Loch Garry and Loch Torridon despite their names being included on the previously published list.[22] In late November 1905, the following list was published in a number of newspapers in Australia and in papers in both New Zealand and Scotland. This list which 'was received at Fremantle by the English mail' indicates that there were no passengers on the last voyage.[23]

W. S Hawkins, master, Glasgow
James Priest, mate, North Shields
Charles Radcliffe, second mate, USA
Fred. W. Lake, third mate, Melbourne
James Reid, carpenter, Dumbarton
W. Molseed, steward, Greenock
W. McLean, cook, Glasgow
R. Simpson, sailmaker, Greenock
Eugen Broberg, A.B., Stockholm
Donald Mathieson, A.B., Skye
A. Anderson, A.B., Kragero
E: McEwan, A.B., Greenock
Thomas Anderson, A .B., Arandel
Hugh Humphreys, A.B., Portmadoc
Alexander Dunlop, A.B., Rothesay
M. Jenson, A.B., Aarhus
David Hanson, A.B., Bergen
E. Holden, A.B., Newark, N.J.
John Bickle, A.B., Edinburgh
William Barry, A.B., Adelaide
Edward McPhie, O.S., Morven
William Turnbull, O.S., Grangemouth
William Martin, O.S., Glasgow
Joseph W. Hadley, apprentice, Wivenhoe
Thomas. W. Pearce, apprentice, Southampton
D. S. B. Thomson, apprentice, Melbourne
Horace Eastwood, apprentice, Knottingley
In the above list, the abbreviations A.B. and O.S. refer respectively to Able seaman and Ordinary seaman.

The passing of Thomas Pearce received attention in the Australian press due to his father, Tom Pearce, being well known as one of the two survivors of the Loch Ard wrecking in 1878, and as his grandfather, James Pearce, was the captain of SS Gothenburg at the time of her loss in 1875.[24]
