Title: Tugboat St Fagan - Crew List
Post by: SueB2015 on Tuesday 14 April 15 13:40 BST (UK)

Can anyone point me to where I can gain the Crew List for the St Fagan.  She was one of the rescue ships at Dunkirk and was blown up on the 1st December 1940.  I know that the Commander and Boatswain and 6 ratings were saved but I would appreciate any help finding the lost sailers
Many thanks

Hi,
Try Greenwich Naval Museum, there is a place there where every ship info. is logged. I must go there myself one day.
But first, nationalarchives at kew, not sure of the web address, do a search and it will tell you if they have the info on line.
I have just typed in tugboat st Fagan..........and there is quite a lot about it.
trying to think of a site.......ah yes........crewlists
Try that it may be a help.
Good luck
