CPO. Joseph Walters
Royal Navy HMS Nelson
from:Nottingham
Joseph Walters was my grandmother's brother. He was born in Basford, Nottingham in about 1893. He was in the Navy for a considerable amount of time, possibly serving in the First World War. He was definitely serving onboard HMS Nelson, as his sister Nancy (she lived in Gouverneur, NY State, USA) and her daughter Olive took tea onboard in 1938. She also mentioned that he already had four medals by 1938, although I have no information on these. If anybody has any information on Joseph, that would be very much appreciated.
