HMS Good Hope lost 1914

[Geoffers]

I have not been able to find him under the TNA Seaman's Wills either.

If this is the wills in ADM48 on documentsonline, not that they only cover up to 1882.

PS - I've found one photo which lists all those pictured together with ranks.

Geoffers, that photo is it the one on the coronel website? If not where is it?

It's on the Coronel web-site. From the home page I clicked on sitemap and scrolled down to crew photos - HMS Good Hope.Bottom photo is of officers on board HMS Good Hope and lists those in the three rows in the photo.

Yes, I have that one but there is one in the middle row who is "unknown". I tried working it from right to left with the names but still don't know if the "unknown" one is the one standing or in line with the rest of them. The other pic is from the Cruiser site but none of the crew are named in that one. They all appear to be non-officer sailors.

Hello Colin,
Have you tried the website www.naval-history.net, click on Royal Navy & Dominion Casualties pre1914-2008, World War 1 1914-18 will be seen, scroll down the page to a chronological list, there you will see 1914 where you can click on Battle of Coronel. Here you will find an alphabetical list of the crew of the HMS Good Hope.

Hi there

I've a fairly complete list of both crews for the Good Hope and Monmouth and have a searchable database on-line, you can find this on my site, just go to casualties and then search the database.
