    Quick look suggests:

    Charles W Farley
    England and Wales Birth Registration Index, 1837-2008
    birth registration:
    1913
    Yarmouth, Norfolk, England
    mother:
    Lawson


    Could you confirm his mothers maiden name please,
    then we know we have the correct person.

    Regards,

    Keith.

    See you updated as I was searching and posting thanks,
    Would Lawson be his mum's maiden name ?

    Hi Don,
    The name of the book I was talking about is Looming Lights by George Carter. George was one of the crew at the time, he is in the newspaper cutting. Cant remember other names of crew.

    I know there is a chapter about the time my father was in his crew. I think I will have to and try and find it in one of my boxes, unless you will all be patient to wait till I move. I can hold off from this research till then if you would like.
    Regards Sheila

    There is no rush Sheila ,

    Anything at all, in your own time is welcomed.

    Some of the team here may add more as found,
    we all have own avenues and resource hence,
    time usually yields good results. Some one may
    also have the book etc.

    In the main the intention would be to both assist
    and work with you. Again, time frame has no end date.

    All the best.

    Keith.

    Thank you Keith, you have been most helpful.
    Should I keep posting on this thread, as it was only supposed to be a introductory post.
