Hi Ian,
I don't believe it can be Admiral Nelson as The Maritime Museum in London has the shirt he wore when he died (Trafalgar, 1814 ?)on display, white with brown blood stains Another interesting point about the museum is that if you have an ancestor who was a British Navy Captain and you give them 48 hours notice, they will pull the official portrait (oil painting) for you to view.
