This is the first time at this sort of thing. My mothers Madden name is Sherval and she is the daughter of George Edward Bertrum Sherval of Reading Berkshire and his wifes Madden name is Brightman. My Gt Grandfather was one of the first to be killed in Ireland around 1917 and is laid to rest in Henley.
I see you have information on Georges 2 sons, but no mention of his daughter. I would like to pass on news to my mother of this as she has all the history. I hope you go on line at some time so we can share some of the history behind this Naval Family.
