I have just been given this list of names,by mark  barret from  the Nelson and his world  forum,of the crew who were from Rotherham,some of these might be related to me!!!!!!!!!!!!

The information comes from the muster books of the ships - which are still held at the National Archive.

This information has been put into a fantastic database called the Ayshford Trafalgar Roll.

Details of the Rotherham men are as follows:


Thomas Jephson : Landsman : Aged 23 : HMS Revenge
William Wild : Landsman : Aged 24 : HMS Revenge
Thomas McGurick : Landsman : Aged 25 : HMS Swiftsure
John Stott : Able Seaman : Aged 25 : HMS Minotaur
