Some of the Mary Rose crewMost of the men in this photograph died when the Mary Rose sank in October 1917, included George Turner Paton. Various copies of this photo survive with crew descendants, and one version labels some of the men. Paton is apparently the fellow seated at the bottom left corner, wearing white.
