Richard Barry (Royal Navy)

Hi, I am trying to find any close relatives of Richard Barry. He was from Wexford and left to London to join the navy where he retired. He passed away somewhere between 2010 -2015. He was not married. Sister was Mary Margaret brother was Brian I believe and his mom may have been Margaret. He would have traveled to Trinidad while in the Navy at least 3 times. Definitely in July 1978.

Please help.

Hi thanks for the response. He would have been mid 20s from what I was told. He was responsible for liaising with bringing in documents for the Naval Vessels when docked in Trinidad then.

Hi Richard, Are you in the UK?
I will have to contact my brother and see if he can get some information to continue searching.

Ok with you?

Hi Richard, my brother posted the Richard Barry information on some Naval site he uses, a few said they knew him.
Nothing other than that.
There is another site he uses and he has posted again on there, this was last week.
As soon as I hear from him I will let you know.

Hi Richard, 
There has been quite a few people viewing the post that my brothers uses but no replies.
What about contacting the Wexford Radio station...they could put your request out.
