Looking for the family of my grandfather, George Bagnall Sparrow. He was born (I think) somewhere near London, brothers Hubert, Walter, sisters Lillian and May. Joined the British Merchant Marine, captained several freighter/passenger ships along the west coast of Africa, enlisted in RNVR during World War I, then came to Canada, possibly via Seattle, where he may have married (1 child) and divorced. Married my grandmother, Gertrude Mary Pyke in Vancouver, B.C. Died 1929 in a dockside accident.

Any information gratefully received.
