Able Seaman Arthur Taylor
Royal Navy H.M.S. Venus
Lived at 1 Albany Terrace

Burnley Express
20th June 1917

Had spent over 10 years in the Navy and in East Africa in 1917. Had been on three vessels which had been torpedoed

He was my 2nd great uncle (1885-1965). His brother was Pte John Taylor (241630) who died in 1917 who you have very kindly provided a photo and newspaper article about. I know Arthur was married to Rebecca Richard's and lived at Albany Terrace and later lived at 9 Penistone Street.
