Went onto the site mentioned by the last writer and found the Smithery where a relation, Arthur Mudge, worked as a blacksmith from the mid 1890s to 1930s - it says in his obit C.M.Dept can anyone tell me what that department was. I am hoping to make a visit to the Dockyard this Sept - will I be able to find where the Smithery was.
I also see on the maps on this site (1911) mention of Chatham Barracks, would this be the same as Chatham Garrison (1890s) where my g.grandfather was Garrison Sgt. Major, if so, will I be able to find something of that too.
