T Price, Ordinary Seaman lost his life in sinking of Voltaire

Dear Sir,

I am researching the sinking of H.M.S. Voltaire for my grandmother, her brother was ordinary seaman T Price who lost his life as the ship sank. I wonder if you could tell me if he's mentioned at all in the book "Sailors in Cages.

Many thanks
Rev Viv Nicholls
