Stkr. Arthur Sidney Frounks

Royal Navy The Ryde Queen

from:Taunton

My late father's name was Arthur Sydney Frounks and he was born in Taunton, Somerset on 3 June 1916 and passed away on 17 December 1998. He served during the Second World War and was stationed at HMS Royal Arthur Class 112 in Skegness.

I know he served on the Paddle Steamer the Ryde Queen which I am led to believe was a minesweeper. I also know from things which my late father told me one ship which he was on was blown up and he got sucked through the funnel on the ship and I believe it was only my father and seven other officers who survived.

I am trying to trace his naval records, any information which anuone may be able to give me will be of great help I am trying to set up a family tree.
