Jane A Stafford from Canada said... 04/10/2021  Frank Stafford My Dad, Frank Stafford, recently passed on September 28, 2021; just 2 weeks shy of his 97th birthday. I believe, at the time of his death, he may have been pretty close to being the oldest surviving crew member of the torpedoing & sinking of the HMS Barham. He had just turned 17 the month before and was a Boy 1rst Class at the time. I have attached his obituary. https://ottawacitizen.remembering.ca/obituary/frank-stafford-1083399077 Paul Bradbury from Wychnor said... 07/09/2021  Harry Dooling Hello, I found a memorial to an 18 year old lad Harry Dooling who lost his life when the Barham sank, in a tiny churchyard in Wychnor.
