My uncle was serving on HMS Duchess when the collision happened. I have been looking into the events of that day. Would be great to know if any other crew members families have any details. Names of friends etc. |

L/s William Lamb, my father's eldest brother was on Barham at Jutland. His brother Alfred was on Neptune in the same conflict. William was killed in an accident in 1918 whilst on Barham. Family anecdote has it ,that he had charge of a party lifting an aircraft on a hoist when ashackle broke and it fell.He is supposed to have pushed other men to safety in the incident. Commonwealth war graves simply list him as 'drowned' His brother Alfred accompanied his body when it was taken home for burial in Nottingham General Cemetary in a war grave site there. In reading about Barham I have never seen reference to aircraft but I suppose the plane could have been from another ship or anywhere. Is anything known please? |

George Fowler |
I would appreciate any information regarding my Uncle Bill(George)Fowler, who was killed when the HMS Barnham sank. Every remberance day I place a croos for him on the cenataph in Lincoln High Street-where his and his father's name appear. There is also a memorial flower container here. Someone puts flowers in the pot and would like to know who this may be-an unknown relation perhaps. any information would be grateful. |

Edward Boyne |
I met the daughter of Edward Boyne (survivor) today whilst I was selling poppies in Leeds. We had a good long chat about her dad, and she recommended your website to me. It is a fitting and very well put together memorial to the ship and to her ship's company. We will remember them. |

I have recently received a compilation DVD from a relative in Canada which contains quite a few Barham photos (most of which I have seen before) but it also contains a photograph taken on the torpedo deck of the U Boat that sank her. Chilling but historically fascinating. I will try and extract it and post it later |
