Yes thats him on the roll of honour
i thought about trying to go through his merchant naval
records but i dont know his number or how to go about it
he was a fisherman for most of his life  he was sent to grimsby
as an apprentice when he was 12 from the birkenhead union workhouse
but thats all i know about him

karen

i think we are sure about his marriage & death
how sure are we about the crew list and the workhouse ?
one born lanarkshire , one born birkenhead
birkenhead and grimsby are on opposite coasts
i'm just wondering if he was born in scotland if his surname might
have been BAILEY(various spellings) which is fairly common there
it could be that he never knew his parents  :(

Hi Karen,

living at Birkenhead Union School. Hope this helps.
