"O, God, Thy sea is so great and my boat is so small"
an Old Breton prayer inscribed on plaques given to new submarine captains by Admiral Hyman Rickover, who gave this one to the President. President Kennedy favored this quote and used it in his remarks at the dedication of the East Coast Memorial to the Missing at Sea, May 23, 1963. He kept the plaque on his Oval Office desk. |

- A note from Helen
Williams (from Australia):
Although the Breretons 'started' in Brereton, as the family grew
and the men married heiresses, they acquired other lands, including
Malpas and Shocklach (both in Cheshire), Blymhill and Ipstones (both
in Staffordshire), and large tracts of land in Lincolnshire, Yorkshire
and Ireland. They also held land in Cheshire and Staffordshire (these
were the ones who didn't marry heiresses).
