Allan Leslie GATLAND- Looking for descendants.......
« on: Tuesday 25 September 18 04:38 BST (UK) »
I have recently acquired some loose pages from an old autograph book, a few dated 1917, and rather than destroy them, would like to hand them on to any interested descendants.

One consists of a rather nice pen & ink drawing entitled "The Sky Pilot" showing a vicar/priest on horseback. Dated 1917, in capital letters it gives the name of ENGR. LIEUT. A. LESLIE GATLAND, R. N.

"H. M. S. MALAYA"

This is possibly his death:

1954/34928   Gatland   Allan Leslie   68Y

Any family tree websites which lead to contacting descendants would be very helpful.

Hi, I've sent a message to the most likely looking tree. (the one that doesn't have links to other trees) so again, hopefully the right one.
No doubt you will make them prove descendancy  ;D

Person I messaged says no relation and he knows of no descendants.  Do you want me to try the other trees or have you already found a home for it.

Appears he was lost at sea when the HMS Avenger was torpedoed in 1917:
