 | | Filed by ships' official number (since 1857) some of the piece numbers list these necessary official numbers. |
 | | Samples may be seen, courtesy of Bart O'Brien (bart150@hotmail.com), who has been kind enough to send scans of his father's service records in the RN, stretching from training in HMS Ganges in 1917 till 1945, and Ken Rigby, whose grandfather entered as a stoker before the Great War. |
 | | Suggest you contact the Registry of Shipping & Seamen, Anchor House, Cheviot Close, Parc Ty Glas, Llanishen, Cardiff CF4 5JA [you need a big envelope for the address!] or fax +44 (0)1222 747877, for the location of particular ones - some are actually at RSS. |
