Hi Elizabeth, Elli and All  :)


Thanks for the information Elli. I'll send off for his Service sheet. I've found out that Samuel Paterson served on the HMS Veronica, Diomede and London, but would like to know more.


Regards.

Hi all


I managed to get a copy of Samuel Paterson's service sheet. It looks as though he signed on for 12 years on the 9th January 1924 aged 19. The ships listed are Pembroke 2 (Naval barracks?), Marlborough and Veronica.


This service seems to end on December 1928 however I'm sure he was in the Royal Navy from then on until the end of the War.


There is a stamp on this service sheet that states 'record transferred to card ...........  1929). Some of the wording / numbers are unclear.


Does anyone have any idea as to why the record seems to be incomplete?

It's been awhile since I first saw this thread, researching the Cooper & Todd connection on behalf of shared Ancestry DNA matches with my husband Garth Muirson (83)
One match is Carolyn nee Harding whose grandparents were  Andrew Winnick Cooper &  Sarah nee Todd. 
If anyone wants to contact me for further information re the NZ story I'm willing to help with what I
