2 Background

This document contains details of checks undertaken during April and May 2007 to verify the number and details of men lost with the ship and to compare the verified list with Roll of Honour previously made.

Checks were undertaken by Paul Bevand and Frank Allen.

Method used:

Stage 1 was to verify that the existing details we had – as recorded on the Association’s web site at www.hmshood.com - were complete and correct. Data from the site was transcribed into a Microsoft Excel file as this would made it easy to rearrange the data in any way required to facilitate easy of subsequent checking.

Having populated the Excel file we crossed checked it against:

• The web site A to Z pages for casualties • The individual pages of each casualty • The Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s web site at www.cwgc.org

These checks threw up a small number of discrepancies. Our Excel list and the Association’s web site were updated as required.

Stage 2: having established a list which we could be 100% confident in we then began cross checks against existing alternative Rolls of Honour. The Rolls of Honour we checked are those which are seen as most accurate or most significant:

• The Boldre Calligraphic Book of Remembrance – photographic images of the book were taken by Paul Bevand on 18 April 2007 and these were used in the cross checking. • The Casualty List published in ‘The Fleet’ in December 1941 – an old photocopy is held by Frank Allen and Peter Heys. This was used for cross checking. • The ‘Greenwood Roll of Honour’ a copy of which is held by several veterans in the Association. It is also believed that the Greenwood list may form the basis of the St Anne’s and St. George’s Rolls of Honour. A photocopy is held by Frank Allen and this was used for cross checking.

Checks were performed by comparing a copy of the verified Association list against the copies of the lists as described above. A new worksheet was made in the Excel file for each list to be checked. The verified Association list was then copied into this new sheet and used as the starting point for checks. As a discrepancy was identified it was highlighted by changing the colour of the entry in the relevant cell(s) in the Excel file. The Association list had already been numbered (in strict alphabetical order) and numbers were recorded for the order of the list being checked as part of the checking process. At the completion of checks for each list all discrepancies were extracted into this summary document.

3 Main findings and issues

1. With the exception of ‘The Fleet’, all the Rolls of Honour list 1415 casualties. The Boldre Book of Remembrance also lists the three survivors giving a total list of 1418 which may be the origin of this particular figure. The verified Association list and Greenwood list both list 1415 men. 2. There is no standard way of ordering lists with all four lists choosing different ways. Details are to be found in the main section of this document. 3. The Fleet does not list any Royal Marines but does list a number of casualties not included in any of the other lists. These have been verified as not Hood casualties – mainly be work undertaken by Don Kindell in conjunction with Naval Historical Branch. 4. The lists vary in the data that they record:

Service Home Surname Forenames Service Rank Age Memorial Parents Wife No Town Association Where Where Where Where Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Available Available Available Available Boldre Yes Yes Yes No Yes No No No No No Greenwood Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes No No No No No The Fleet Yes Yes Yes No Yes No No No No No

5. Whilst undertaking this research contact has been made with the Royal Navy with a view to:

a. verifying the casualties with their records b. verifying the names of men who left the ship shortly before she was lost c. verifying (again) men listed in ‘The Fleet’ as non Hood casualties

The Royal Navy has agreed to undertake this work but the outcome may not be known for some months.

Conclusion and recommendations

1. 1415 should be officially accepted by the Association as the number of casualties of the loss of the ship. 2. The Association should work towards as detailed as dataset as it is possible to obtain through surviving records – filling gaps in ages, home towns etc. 3. Once all data has been gathered and verified, the Association should produce an official Roll of Honour 4. That this official Roll of Honour should be offered to Boldre Church, St Anne’s Church and St. George’s church in addition to those which they already hold. 5. The Association should consider publication of the verified Roll of Honour, possibly making use of photographs of casualties where these are held.

4 Boldre Roll of Honour

Details of check performed

Date: April 2007 Checked by: Paul Bevand Fields checked: Surname, Forenames, Rank / rating, service.

Details of Roll of Honour

Format: Large bound calligraphic list retained at Boldre Church, Hampshire Date created: Unknown Source data: Unknown Dedication: “H.M.S. Hood and her Gallant Company” Structure

The Roll of Honour is laid out in the following order:

• Officers in order of rank and seniority • Rating by branch, rating and alphabetical order based on surname • Royal Marines by rank / rating and then alphabetical order based on surname • Survivors

Names are listed in the format SURNAME, FIRST CHRISTIAN NAME, SUBSEQUENT INITIALS.

Total names listed: 1415 plus 3 survivors

General observations and issues

• The Boldre Roll of Honour lists the same men as the Association list. Differences arise with names used but the list is substantially the same men. • Officers surnames are shown including their service and other post-nominal letters. • Acting ranks and ratings are shown, leading to a number of discrepancies with the Association list. • Alias names have been used, though in some cases the individual’s real name has been noted.

Details of Roll of Honour

Date created: Unknown Source data: Unknown Dedication: ‘Presented by EDWIN GREENWOOD in memory of his Father CAPTAIN FRANK GREENWOOD Royal Marines (Rtd) 1902 – 1964 Served in H.M.S. Hood 12th May 1931 to 30 August 1933.

Structure

• Vice-Admiral and Captain • Royal Navy, Royal Naval Reserve and Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve Commissioned and Warrant officers in alphabetical order by surname • Polish Navy Midshipmen in alphabetical order by surname • Royal Navy Ratings in alphabetical order by surname • Royal Marines and Royal Marine Officers in alphabetical order by surname • Royal Australian Navy Ratings in alphabetical order by surname • NAFFI personnel in alphabetical order by surname
