    My ancestor is Robert Daniel Fletcher Chisholm. He was a second Steward on the Lusitanial and was one of the crew that spotted the torpedo approach the vessel on the day that it was torpedoed.
    He was one of the survivors and later became a steward on the Ophir (the ship that was involved in looking for the wreck of the Lisitania). His grandfather Captain Daniel Chisholm was also a ships salvager, he dived searching for ship wrecks. There is a memorial to him in Rake Lane Cemetery (Wallasey, Merseyside) commemorating his life and achievements.

    Does any one have any information on the either Robert or Daniel

    Thank you
