Can anyone help with information about Petty Officer Stoker Harry MARSH, HMS Carlisle, who died in Vladivostok, Siberia in October 1919? Our Parish is researching all 11 of the men on our war memorial who did not return from WW!. Grateful for any background information about his service career, family etc.
