Hi Jason, the crew member is Michael Newman aged 38, from Higher St Kinsale, a seaman with the Royal Naval reserves, it appears to be a memorial only and that he was lost at sea and not recovered, as according to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission his memorial is on the War memorial on Plymouth Hoe Cliff |

Hello, I am pretty new to the board. Are you looking for the Crompton family related to Samuel Crompton? He invented the spinning mule. He was from Bolton England. |

Hi Just came across your message board while having nothing to do in work and I put in my maiden name Crompton!! Cant believe this history. I have always wanted to do a family tree - maybe I will now. Thanx. |
