Able Seaman. Peter Kelly
Royal Navy HMS Forfar
from:Placentia Bay, Newfoundland
(d.2nd Dec 1940)
I had a brother whom I never met who died with the sinking of the HMS Forfar.
Peter Kelly, son of Clement and Bridget Kelly of Freshwater, Placentia Bay, Newfoundland. He was born July 21, 1919 and died 2nd December 1940 when the Forfar was lost.
I have often wondered how he died, did he drown or was he killed by the explosions.
