I am trying to find the crew list for HMS ORION at the Battle of Jutland. My father served as a Royal Marine at the age of 16/18 his was THOMAS ERNIST POTTER he served until 1922. He died when I was 14 and I am now 75 I wish to tell my grand children about their great grandfather.

I am trying to find the crew and its history as we have a relation that served on the Orion and was in the RM Band at the time. I have an original poster from 1920 when the band played the Alexandra Gardens in Weymouth on Sunday May 30th. I thought it might be of interest to him and information wise he maybe able to help me.

Thanks,
Stuart Potterton

Just to let you know for information my Father was on the Orion off of Matapan, he transferred from the
Howe in 1950.

Best regards,
