I've never had to obtain RN records for someone as late as this myself, but as your father would be next of kin that is someting that could be looked into.
I remember the struggle someone else had when trying to get the army papers for their father (similar circumstances) where the MoD wouldn't not accept the application as the death cert of the man could not be provided, because, like you, no one knew what happened to him. Typically, I don't remember what happened in the end though! Here's some info on obtaining Navy records: http://www.mariners-l.co.uk/UKRNPersonnel.html

I have just seen this episode in WA and so I thought I would see what the forum has to say. Very amazed to see Shona's post 28 and the preacher William Bryant as I think he could be a twig on my tree.
I've got to say that I don't think I've seen a family have so many tragedies .. especially the burning and the child being run over .. I'm sure I would have ended up being mentally effected .. I suppose having other children you have to keep going, but you would have to carry scars. Just one comment re Bible Christians and some of them to this day believe that illness is caused by sin .. I think it wouldn't be necessary to be insane to end up in an asylum, but to be brain washed and wracked with guilt. I had a family member who had serious medical problems and a Bible Christian friend told her that it was caused by her sin. Fortunately she was only told this once, but if you were at chapel three times a day from a child .. and had a brother who was retarded, maybe the poor young woman who ended up in the asylum also had a "friend" with advice .
