Guest diggorypress Posted 19 June , 2005 Posted 19 June , 2005 Hi Is there anywhere that I can specifically find out all the names of the men who died who were on the HMS Formidable that sunk on Jan 1 1915? Are there crew lists or something? Many thanks
PhilB Posted 19 June , 2005 Posted 19 June , 2005 The Times published several lists of men lost and survived. Shouldn`t be hard to find. Phil B
PhilB Posted 19 June , 2005 Posted 19 June , 2005 You may be interested in this report of the sinking, also from the Times. Sorry I didn`t record the date. Phil B

per ardua per mare per terram Posted 24 June , 2005 Posted 24 June , 2005 Hayward did a reprint of a 1917 Navy List that gave crew lists for the ships sunk at Jutland, maybe a 1915 NL has a crew list for Formidable.
potty5 Posted 25 June , 2005 Posted 25 June , 2005 I recently wrote the book "Before The Bells Have Faded" about the sinking of HMS Formidable. It contains a 50 page Roll of Honour to the 547 men lost as well as a full list of all who survived and where they were landed. Let me know if you want a copy, I have a few copies left from the first print run. Mark Potts
