This has sparked off a memory from the 80's when Dad came across an article (probably in the Telegraph) about a family wanting information on a relative that was 'always clutching a bible'. He recalled that when they got torpedoed a similar person 'went down with the ship'. Apparently the article got a few answers in the same vein.
