Hi Clare.
As Hugh states some of the spelling may be a bit sus, the Trenorial could be the Treworlis as shown by the picture of your Dads picture
Cheers Des

Yes that's the correct ship built as HARPAGUS official number168347 renamed TREWORLAS 1946.
Another typo - "Strartmaver. 3.10.45" should read 'STRATHNAVER' official number 162619 built 1931.

Regards
Hugh
