Admiral (retired) Henry Edgar Grace (11 July, 1876 – 19 March, 1937) was an officer of the Royal Navy during the First World War.
Life & Career
Grace was promoted to Captain on 31 December 1914.
He assumed command of the destroyer Grafton in June 1915, remaining in her until July 1917.
In May, 1918, he was appointed in command of Birkenhead, but sometime before mid-December, Arthur M. Stancomb took over as Acting Captain on a temporary basis.[1]
This cloudy date of succession may have been around 21 September, 1918, when Grace was appointed as captain of Vindictive.[2]
