Raymond Morton
Good evening
My name is Theresa Puckett and my father, Raymond Morton, was at the Sea Training School, Gravesend, in the early 1950s, before joining the Queen Mary in around 1953. If anyone has any relatives that would have been there around the same time, please feel free to message me. Unfortunately my dad is no longer with us, but any stories/information would be much appreciated. I think I have some photos taken at the time he was at the Sea Training School.

Re: Raymond Morton
Hoping that someone on site may recall him touch wood.
Any information further to someone that actually knew him
would be by us looking up what we can find via the archives
but, you may already hold this.
All the best. Keith.

Re: Raymond Morton
Touch wood the pictures may ring a few bells to someone.
Any thing else that helps trigger memories may help further,
where was he from, any nicknames, any names of seafaring
friends, ships, tales etc ?
