        History

        George Prideaux Brabant Naish was the son of a keen amateur maritime archaeologist, the Reverent Francis Clement Prideaux Naish (fl 1890-1960). He was educated at St Edward's School, Oxford, and at Southampton University and joined the National Maritime Museum in 1935, soon after it was established. He joined the Royal Naval Volunteer in 1940 transferring on demobilisation to the Royal Naval Reserve, in which he became a lieutenant-commander. On his return to the Museum in 1947, Naish became Honorary Secretary to the Society for Nautical Research, a post he held for thirty years. He attained the rank of Keeper in 1969, and in 1971 became Historical Consultant to the Director shortly before retiring from the Museum.
