News from 1917: The Sinking of Laurentic I

[ShawnStrohman]

Hi Peter,

My great great uncle died on the ship and I was wondering if you had any information or photos of him in it, as well as inquiring about your book. My uncle's name is Frederick Randall. From Fogo Newfoundland.

Francis,
Captain Norton was court marshalled four days after some of the Laurentic dead were buried at St. murals church in Fahan Donegal in 1917.
My book, We own Laurentic tells all about Captain Norton who freed the prisons n board Larentic just before it went down. He was the last to leave the sinking ship.
we own Laurentic will be updated shortly with many new facts about the moving 100th centenery weekend in Donegal on 25th January to the 29th.
I hope his helps.
All the best
Jackp
