Battle of Jutland: Complete Crew Lists

[Colin Robinson]

I am trying to find complete crew lists for RN ships that survived Jutland. Help please?

Really every ship or any in particular? The term "survived" denotes no less than 143 warships, as compared to the 14 sunk. I'm sure someone can probably refer you to the ADM files in the Public Records Office for crew rosters.

Off the top of my head, the closest online is the list of every ship with it's Captain;

To the best of my knowledge there are no complete crew listings of Jutland vessels not lost.

There only a few methods of denoting that a man was 100% sure to have been at the action.

That he was wounded, Killed or taken prisoner.

That he was on a survivors list of a ship that was sunk. (picked up by friendly forces)

That he was commended /decorated for his part in the action.

In the case of sailors, having his original parchment is handy, as it will be stamped that he has received the Jutland bounty (if he was present) .
This notation of the bounty paid is NOT usually on the Admiralty copy records available from the PRO. On the other hand the records at the PRO for Marines, do note the Jutland bounty.

Other than personal accounts mentioning identifiable 3 rd parties , that's about it, for 100% ID of men present.
