I was looking for a picture of HMS Research myself when I came across your site- I have a chart from 1898 for River Forth whose estuary runs from Edinburgh inland to Stirling FK8.It states the survey was conducted by Cpt W. Usbourne Moore, RN on board surveying ship "Research". He had an interesting career- I've came some charts on line- [commons.wikimedia.org]
and a bit more about his life.[en.wikipedia.org]
I still have not found a pic of the vessel but I have seen the advice to look at the National Maritime Museum so I will do that. Hope this is of interest.
