First one I have come across from the little fishing village of Kensington!
Big winkle picking community on the banks of the Thames but certainly a shortage of fishing vessels!
Actually his family came from Dover. There is a very interesting story behind his birth in Kensington on page 19 of this document https://www.oks.org.uk/assets/files/Offcuts%20No_%2039%20Spring%202014.pdf
He is the first Royal Navy officer I have come across in this series.
How on earth did you find that?
Nicely found, his Royal Navy record is here: https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D7586914
One example of how indexing these can find related records.
And time to spare because we have nothing to transcribe!
ok, so you are getting though them quicker than I can sort them. I will get another load uploaded tomorrow.
Well done. Not too many!
Hugh Horatio Knocker had a daughter Editha who was a famous violinist. She now has a Wikipedia article.
