Hubert Claude Harris Naval Photographer
« on: Sunday 19 February 17 12:48 GMT (UK) »
I'm trying to find more information on Hubert Claude Harris's career in the Navy. Born in 1883 I am aware he was part of the Naval airforce. I would love to know where he travelled with the Navy and any awards received.

An officers record in that name and dob 4 June 1883 is here http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D8269441  In Navy List 1917 as a Lieutenant at Chingford Royal Naval Air Station http://www.walthamforestmemories.net/files/Bayliss-Chingford%20Airdrome.pdf.
Part of his RN and RAF records (RHAS and RFC became RAF 1 Apr 1918) are on Findmypast if you have a sub.
Records name a next of kin as Marian Harris of Sternhold Ave Streatham Hill.

If that sounds like your man, £3.45 will get you his National Archive record and you can then check out the others to see if they are included there.  Send me a PM if you need any help with the others.

It is with great difficulty I share with you that in the early hours of 07 August 2021, Maximilian passed away unexpectedly but peacefully.

With deep sadness,
