==Early life==
Harold Farncomb was born in North Sydney, New South Wales on 28 February 1899, the second child of Frank Farncomb and Helen Louisa Farncomb, née Sampson. The family lived in Gordon on the north shore of Sydney. He attended Gordon Public School and Sydney Boys' High School before entering the Royal Australian Naval College (RANC) at age 13 in the RANC's first intake. Farncomb excelled academically at the RANC, graduating with very impressive scores and topped his final year (1916).〔〔Alan Zammit, ('Farncomb, Harold Bruce (1899–1971)' ), Australian Dictionary of Biography, Volume 14, Melbourne University Press, 1996, pp 139–141.〕 On completing his studies at the RANC he was promoted to midshipman on 1 January 1917 and left immediately on the steamer ''Naldera'' for training with the Royal Navy. Farncomb was stationed on board the battleship in April 1917.〔
