William Moodie Bell-- Part 2: Kingston Dockyard

Afterwards, he served at the Kingston Dockyard on Lake Ontario.

The British Admiralty appointed Thomas Strickland as Master Shipbuilder in Upper Canada and that displaced Bell from that position.  In 1814, he was appointed as Strickland's assisted.

Strickland died in 1815 and Bell became the Acting Master Builder in Upper Canada until the end of 1816 when the Naval Shipyards at Kingston was reduced and then William Bell returned to Scotland.
