Meeting to share Battle of Jutland involvement
To commemorate the centenary of the battle, Portsdown U3A is undertaking research for a roll of honour and map to remember the men with local connections who lost their lives in 1916.
As part of their research, Portsdown U3A’s local history and genealogy groups are inviting the community to meet them to share stories of their family involvement in the major sea battle.
Two such drop-in sessions have already proved successful.
