Boswain Albert John Wilson .
« on: Wednesday 28 December 05 19:51 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone tell me about my great uncle who served in the Royal Navy from 1899 to 1923, I do know in 1901 census he was on HMS  Prince George and he was in Gibraltar. I believe he was   one of the first to test out the diving suit.

                Many thanks for any help on theis one   Ken
