My father's uncle served aboard the Lusitania - but I have been unable to track down any record of him. His name is either John or Michael DURKIN (Durkan/Durcan) and he was from Mayo in the west of Ireland.
Does anyone have any information that may be of help to me.
Nothing even close shows up on the crew list for the final crossing, as reproduced in my book. If there are other variations, having a look at the list yourself something might pop out at you, though.
Is it possible he was on the Lusitania, but just not on her final trip? If that's the case, some of the other researchers around might have suggestions on where to begin your search.
