HMS VIVID 11 & 111

[Guest]

My maternal grandfather was Stanley Oscar Young - M7426  (1892 - 1964).

He served 'aboard' both HMS VIVID 11 & 111 he was a Carpenter/Cabinet Maker.

His length of service was from 1914 - 1936.

He never went to the Far East but I think his area of travels included North,  South Atlantic and the Med.

He served on the following ships from 1914 - 1927  HMS Indus, Talbot, Marshal Soult, Resolution, Emperor of India & Ceres.

On his second service (he was pensioned off in 1936) I have yet to get his details but I know he served for a while on HMS Barham - lost in WW2.

I expect Horatio2 will be along shortly - he is the expert on this sort of thing.
