Arctic convoy crews information please
Hi everyone,
I am doing some research into my ancestry and both my grandparents served in the Merchant Navy on the Arctic convoys. In fact they were both on the same convoy at one time. Their names were, Dotchin and Mavin one a captain and the other a Chief Engineer and as everyone knows they don't mix.
I was wondering if anyone had knowledge or knew where I could find details of the names of crews on these convoys.
Many thanks
Iain Mavin
