I am researching those lost in war who are commemorated on War Memorials and family graves. The Captain of the SS Cymrian is commemorated on Benllech War Memorial (Anglesey) and on family graves in the churchyards of St Pedr, Llanbedrgoch and St Aelhaearn, Llanaelhaearn (Llyn Peninsula). I should like to send you a copy of my text about this man - Captain Henry William Hughes and ask your permission to use a copy of this picture on his text.

The text is intended for the Western Front Association website, north Wales.
