.... and on the right here he is in his merchant navy days on his identification certiicate. His ships listed are War Mango, SS War Peacock and the Troutpool.

  <<An Identity Certificate photograph records Greenup 1901-1975, son of John William and Ethel Annie nee Moorsom, as a seaman in the years 1919-1920.Yet he became known for his paintings having exhibited in the Royal Academy and later had works auctioned.

He was obviously an interesting personality and perhaps more needs to be known. One wonders what his grandfather Jacob Storm knew and thought of him

On the right is Greenup Harrison 1881-1957, a second cousin once removed, and the son of Storm and Isabella nee Moorsom, holding his Identity Certificate
