I am Harvey(HMS Sovereign).I have used this name as a memory of my grandfather Fred Owen Davies,& my Uncle Fred Davies-both of whom I have learned served on HMS Sovereign
in the Royal Navy in 1916/(1st World War)&
1945 respectively!You see I do not have all
the facts such as the area in which they both served etc-because I had been put into
care from a very early age-so missed out on
family life-seeing my grandparents,listening
to them & how they lived their lives.
However,just recently over the past few years I have traced down several members of my family-including a cousin who
is the child of my uncle on my fathers side.
It was he who told me that my grandfather &
Uncle Fred served on HMS Sovereign respectively!But it is possible that may
well be all my cousin knows?So I really would love to find out more about the ship
they served on-where,when,what regiment etc.
Does anyone perhaps know how I could find
out more please?I do have a photograph my
Uncle John Davies sent me-in it is grandfather with a cap on which says
"HMS Sovereign"on the front!If anyone can help or think they may have served with either my grandfather or Uncle Fred(Or Both)
then I would be delighted to hear from you!
Thankyou so much for reading this-I do hope
you can help?Kind Regards-HMS Sovereign
