Hi Cathy, What sort of information are you looking for? I know this is a genealogy site, but I am researching the history of HMS Searcher, and the other 44 royal navy ships of that type. I have a web site 'Royal Navy Escort Carriers' to be found at http://www.royalnavyresearcharchive.org.uk/ESCORT/ which has a basic entry for Searcher, it may be of some help to see the ship. At present the page has little info on it but two good photographs. More will be added as time permits.
