Robert William Wainewright

Lieutenant-Commander Robert William Wainewright, (27 February, 1901 – ) served in the Royal Navy.

I believe The National Archives has his name wrongly transcribed as Wainwright. The Navy List seems to have him right.^{[Fact Check]}

As with many men born c. 1899 or later, his Service Records at The National Archives do not reflect activity between 1931 and 1939 or so.
