I have an ancestor who was a member of the Royal Naval Reserve during WW1, rising from Stoker to Leading Stoker. I have a copy of his record from National Archives.

However, I have a question regarding his service (a copy of which is below). Am I right in assuming he was serving on HMS Dublin, and would this be the same HMS Dublin that participated in the Battle of Jutland, as per this Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Dublin_(1912))



Many thanks in advance

Steve

Unfortunately the image has gone at this time of posting, having seen the image previously when posted, I recall he served at Vivid which I think was a training establishment? and then served on the Dublin. If he was on the Dublin 31 May/ 1 June,1916, he would have been at the battle of Jutland.

The Navy would not have had 2 ships serving named "Dublin"

Hi Steve, due to Photobucket becoming unstable, Blue sourced another site to host images. His instructions are clear and easy to follow, described here:

Many thanks to both of you for the replies. I've tried uploading the image again as per Blue's instructions



Does anyone know a reason why there are 2 entries for serving on HMS Dublin as Leading Stoker?

The last entry was for his demobilisation, to show the rank he finished with.

Cheers Daggers.

Thought it might have been that, but wasn't sure as it covers from 1st January to his demobilisation
