How does one go about looking for artefacts from this Cunard Liner which
was turned into an Armed Cruiser during W.W.I?

Anyone any ideas?

Mike, as you know I was lucky enough to find a couple of things in a local
jumble sale the other week from HMS Jervia Bay but perhaps you could look on
eBay or the other auction sites. I did a search under the following for
information, and found a few interesting items.
White Star..... you could try Cunard.
Liners
Ships
The Year
Naval History
WW II............ WWI for you

Good luck with your search. Regards ConnieD.

Hi Connie,
Long time since you posted, or is it a case of "time flies"
Anyway, good to see your name in print - How are things generally?

Hi MikeB... things aren't too bad apart from the usual arthritis/heart
probs..... but one carries on <sigh> LOL.........
Shame to see the group so quiet, and seems to have been for weeks now. Hope
that the rest of the group are in fine fettle and will come back again.
Thanks for asking Mike,
Regards ConnieD.

If it's too quiet can I ask if there are any ex RAAF types out there, or ex
Rh. Sigs. I am still looking to find my former Captain, Barry Jones, ex RN,
who joined the Rh. Army in the late '70's..Doug Hendry..."ConnieD"
