Title: Look up in Carlisle library for HMS Formidable
Post by: cpercival on Monday 01 September 14 14:18 BST (UK)
Is anyone able to help me with a look up in the local press archive in Carlisle library?  Was there any coverage of the loss of HMS Formidable on 1 January 1915 or mention of the loss therein of Ordinary Seaman Joseph Rogerson Percival, a local lad and son of Abraham and Elizabeth Percival of Ivy Cottage, Rockliffe?  Many thanks if anyone can help.
