i am after information on my grandfather donald maclean ,all i know of him is that he was born on the isle of barra in the outer hebrides in approx 1898 and that he was a sailor and was swept overboard in a storm somewhere round the shetland islands probably in the late 1930's i know nothing of the vessel or the exact location , i would love to know how i can go about getting his service record and perhaps a photo of him . id like to know how i can go about getting his death certificate ? would it have been registered on one of the islands ?

Glamorganshire Completed Lookups / Re: william + annie griffiths nee mitchell llancarfan

« on: Sunday 06 March 11 17:08 GMT (UK) »

Thank you very much morganllan, you've been busy. I've found a lot of info now about the Griffiths line. Looks as though Llancarvan and Llantrythid are awash with Griffiths'. Will have to spend some time filtering out the correct lineage as well as tracking the Mitchell's from the info you've suppied.

Thanks,

Compo.
