Find Living Relatives

Trying to contact any living relatives of Ernest Herbert who was born 25/1/1881 in Bayswater/London. He was an Able Seaman in the RN and died when his ship HMS Aboukir was torpedoed on 22/9/1914. Hoping to pass on his service medals to proven close relative. He married my great aunt Florence Brooks in 1911 in Romford, there were no children.
