Hi Chris,

Not having much luck with names apart from the odd one. If the information is correct, she was in Devonport Harbour, Devon in 1894.

Two sites that may be off interest to you:-

http://www.battleships-cruisers.co.uk/
http://www.pwsts.org.uk/impregnable.htm

The second one may be of help when trying to search the first one. You might even find what you are after, but I was getting carried away. I'll let you do all the reading

I have also found a possible rellie who was on the the Impregnable age 16 in 1901 census. If it was a training ship does anyone know how long they were on there for?
