I would just like to say what a fantastic journey (no pun intended) I've had following this thread!!!

I can't believe the enormous amount of work & dedication which has gone into it.

In no particular order, amazing stuff - cpercival, Seaweed & maxD.

Apart from being steered (no pun intended again) off course a few times, this is one of my top favourites.

From a small amount of info. we now have a Seafaring Biography....Fantastic guys!!!

Good evening,

What a fantastic lesson in research techniques and deciphering documents. I'm quite jealous, still, one day maybe.

An update to the intrepid team of detectives-

My husband was quite overwhelmed with his extra-special Christmas gift comprised of the service records of his grandfathers which included a substantial  collection of documents and explanatory texts provided by all of you.  He will be reviewing it all in detail over the coming weeks. It had an added bonus of delighting my mother in law, our two adult children and inspiring a Christmas visitor who wants to begin his own family history journey.

I can't thank you all enough for your most generous and kind assistance to me!

Thank you for the update J. It's always good to know how information was received.

I've just re-read this entire thread - it's inspiring.

That is good to hear, especially that so many people were also pleased to learn about it as well.

Isn't that wonderful to hear! Thank you, J.
