HMS Calliope: William Isaac Thorndale
was a sailor on this ship. His great grandson has his memoirs of
his life in the navy 1875-1890 which make wonderful and fascinating
reading, and which fired him with the desire to research his ship.
He has created a website dedicated to the story of HMS Calliope’s
miraculous escape from the hurricane at Apia, Samoa in March 1889.
It can be found at http://homepages.tesco.net/scaramouche/ and
has itself gotten him into contact with a few descendents of her
crew and other interested parties from all over the globe. The
site includes a list of all the ship’s company at Apia (well,
it’s hopefully complete!). Whilst the public record has provided
a wealth of data on six of Calliope’s midshipmen and their
future careers (including Captain Frank Brandt on HMS Monmouth
at Coronel 1914 and Rear Admiral the Honourable HLA Hood on HMS
Invincible at Jutland 1916), he would dearly like to include on
the site, tales of the other officers and most particularly the
men, whose story from those times rarely seems to be told. Does
anyone have any ancestors they might know of who served on the
ship, to be included on the site? Equally, of course, any comments
about the vessel itself would be welcome. Contact Graham
Hague and I will reply to all enquiries.
