I'm sure I have asked this question before, but even after trawling through all my posts, I cannot find it.
Remembering my childhood, my mother used to take me to visit a lady called Delia Maclennan in Dell Road - it could have been sometime between 1958 and 1966.
Was she a family member, or just a family friend?
Back in those days, as kids we called everyone Aunty or Uncle.
If anyone can help, I shall be very, very grateful.

There‘s a book called the „Gustloff Katastrophe“ written by a survivor called Heinz Schön.
There‘s supppsed to be a incomplete passenger List at the end.

I would definitely need Google Translate to help me read the book, but I guess it would be an amazing read

I have just returned from another visit to Poland to visit my family - the family my father left behind during WW2.
My eldest half-sister, Jadwiga, who now has dementia, remembers events from her childhood (she is now approaching her 92nd birthday) and this time she was telling of how, with her mother and three siblings, they were to be evacuated from Gdynia onboard the MV Wilhelm Gustloff, but as the boat was full, they were left behind.
The ship sank, and many thousands of people drowned.
I have tried unsuccessfully to trace the siblings of my father (he had 9 siblings) and I am now wondering if they were onboard the Gustloff and maybe drowned, or if they were evacuated on another ship and moved abroad somewhere, after the war - and that is why I cannot find any records of them.
Jadwiga also remembers that the family were living in 265 Albert Forstell Strafe, which we think maybe was in Gdynia, Chylonia.
Family research is so fascinating - but so frustrating.

A family member served both in the Royal Navy and the Merchant Service in the 1800s.

The first ship he sailed on was HMS Brazen, from 1826
The second ship was HMS Salamander from 1833
The fourth ship was HMS Revenge from 1840

But I can't make out the name of the third ship he served on from 1834.

Please can someone help.
