Revision as of 18:51, 5 February 2021
Commander Geoffrey Robert Bensly Back, (22 February, 1894 – 29 May, 1941) served in the Royal Navy. His name is recorded as "Bensly" in later Navy Lists, but as the more common "Beasly" in early Navy Lists and in some service records. I am guessing that his name was actually Bensly.
