CPO Herbert Woods
Royal Navy HMS Indefatigable
from:Devonport
(d.31st May 1916)
I am so proud of my great uncle, Herbert Woods, who was killed on HMS Indefatigable at the Battle of Jutland 31st May 1916. He was aged 35,son of James and Hannah Woods of Ermington, Devon and husband of Lizzie Woods of 9 Duckworth St., Stoke, Devon.
Herbert was a life long Navy man like 3 of his brothers. One brother, Sidney, was a torpedo gunner and went on to be a commander of HMS Defiance in Devonport
