Hi Dave,

Many thanks for sharing the photo,I couldn't believe it when I first saw it,I had to compare it to the few photos I have of grandad an take into consideration that he was at least 8 to 10 years younger in this photo to the only ones I have of him but I am 99 per cent sure he is third from the left in the back row.many thanks Dave I have taken a copy and will cherish it thank you.

Regards Paul.

Hi All,

 

I have been doing research on my Great Uncle Percy Stevens. Who I know served on H.M.S. Mohawk and was killed with 3 other sailors on 27th October 1916.

He is Buried in Dover St James Cemetery Grave Ref L.W.8, with two of the other Sailors Charles Samuel Humphris  Grave Ref L.W.6, and John Thomas Bracken grave ref E.V.22,

the forth sailor is buried in WARMINSTER (ST. JOHN) CHURCHYARD.

What I don't have is a photo of him can anybody shed some light on the men in the photo posted by davealexander101.

Many Thanks

Paul Stevens
