    3. Graham - Could you explain to those of us unfamiliar with the term, what is a mark one version? You can, of course, find the crew list of H.M.S. Dunedin on Google. It shows Arthur John Thomas Williams was an Engine Room Artificer, 2nd Class. I could find nothing on Ancestry.com, but I was looking at WWII records, and it may be that you are seeking WWI records? Lynne in Tucson -----Original Message----- From: Robert Williams Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2013 11:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [GLA] W.W.1 Naval records lookup. Hi folks. Could some kind soul who may have access to one of the pay per view sites, Have a look for me please. My Grandfather Arthur John Thomas WILLIAMS was a Royal Navy Reserve when he was called up by Proclamation in to World War two on the 24th;of August 1939 a week before the real thing took place. He was killed in action 24th;of November 1941. H.M.S;Dunedin sunk by U.124. I do know all about his record in World war two. I need to know if he was involved in the mark one version or not? At the outbreak of world war one he would have been aged 17. He was born in Grangetown Cardiff on the 11th;of may 1897. No census lookups please as I've done all that. I do know he enrolled in to the R.N.R; in 1924 when he was aged 27. His official number was EC 353. Many Thanks, Graham. Or just for you Jill, Robert Graham Williams.
