The RNLI HQ is at Poole, Dorset. Maybe they would know, or you could try the County RO local to the lifeboat station. Merry |

I live in a town with a lifeboat. There is a small museum attached to the lifeboat house with details of past crew members. There is also a wealth of information in the local town archives, as well as (presumably) at the RNLI headquarters. What town are we talking about? OC |

Definitely - I've looked the same up for somebody else. I'm just trying to remember where I found it. Back soon when I've found it. |
