HMS Lucia was built in 1907 as the Hamburg-Amerika liner Spreewald and was captured in September 1914. She was converted to a submarine depot ship in 1916 on the Clyde and served in the First World War on the River Tees. It would seem from other correspondence that she was given the nickname of 'Lucifer' by her crews. In the Second World War she served in the East, mainly at Colombo, being badly damaged there in April 1942 by Japanese aircraft. She was sold in 1946 and finally broken up in 1951

Ian was an adopted child.
On Monday 3 Sep 1951 he went missing never to be seen again.
The following report comes from "The Evening Dispatch" newspaper of Wednesday, 5th Sep 1951:
" Ten-year-old Ian Aitken wandered from his home at 6 Newport Street, Edinburgh on Monday afternoon and has not been seen since. All day yesterday and through-out last night his parents searched city streets for their missing son. Scottish police have been alerted to be on the look-out for him. Ian came home from Broughton School on Monday afternoon as usual. His mother was out. He whistled through the letter box but his father, a railwayman had just come off work and was asleep. He left his schoolbooks with a neighbour and played for a while with his young friends, he disappeared shortly afterwards. Ian is described as being small for his age with fair hair and a pale complexion. He was wearing navy-blue trousers, maroon blazer, black red and yellow tie, and grey stockings with red tops. Mrs Aitken told an Evening Dispatch reporter that Ian said to the neighbour with whom he left his schoolbooks that he was going to 'see the horses' at the nearby British Railways stables in Morrison Street 'But he never arrived there.' Said Mrs Aitken. She added that Ian was a quiet lad. 'He plays with few other children and he is definitely not the adventurous kind.' He was, however, very keen on history and liked to visit historical buildings. 'But I have been round the Castle, the Royal Scottish Museum and other places and no one appears to have seen him,' she said. Mrs Aitken told the reporter that she had been out shopping to get Ian's lunch ready. 'Just in case he turns up in time,' she added tearfully."
A police investigation took place but Ian was never found. | Aitken, Ian (I9777)
