Sabrine/Sabrina/Sabrina II[edit]

I've been trying to sort out confusion caused by sources describing Sabrina as both a trawler and destroyer in 1917. Stephen Wynn's book^[1] in detailing the death of William George Lucas (J/9809) raised the confusion. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission lists him as serving on HMT Sabrina in 1917. As far as I can tell there were three Sabrinas: HMS Sabrina (1916) the destroyer, HMS Sabrina (1876) by then known as HMS Sabine and HM Yacht Sabrina by then called HM Yacht Sabrina II. The Commonwealth War Graves Commission^[2] seems to be the only source of the trawler designation.

Any experts around to help on this please? Martin of Sheffield (talk) 10:59, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
