I have spoken to John Thomas Clamp's daughter (my mother)and she cannot remember his mother's name as she died before she was born and John Thomas Clamp's father remarried. As you can see his father's name was also John Thomas Clamp as was his son although he was known as Jack. Our John Thomas Clamp who jumped ship in Australia had, we think three sisters one called Annie, another Rhoda and a third who my mother can not remember at present. I also have pictures of a man called Walter who may be John Thomas's brother although I ned to confirm this. JTC (Aus) was at Dunkirk and over the course of WW2 appears to have served in all three armed services at one time or another. I have details of his whereabouts and movements prior to his washing up in Australia.
I have a photo of him if the details above sound as if he could be the John Thomas Clamp you know.

It is a little difficult to confirm as my grandmother (John's wife past away approximately 22 years ago. His son past away several years ago. His daughter (my mother) is still alive but I am not sure how she would handle our communicating. All I know is that our John Thomas came from barrow in Furnace as did my grandmother and was in the merchant navy. He jumped ship during or towards the end of WW2 whilst in Australia. At one time I believe he was living in the Alice Springs area. The Similarities are too close to be anything other than the same person.
One piece of additional information is that at one time he may have been stationed with an anti aircraft balloon unit in London, probably the beginning of WW2.
