Verrico2009 Posted 31 December , 2010 Share Posted 31 December , 2010 While I think of it, I'd forgotten I downloaded this while looking through some records and thought I'd post it in case it's of any interest. Hope it's legible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Underdown Posted 31 December , 2010 Share Posted 31 December , 2010 The Casualty Lists thread under "Other" is the best place for these (I've cross-referenced to this thread). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bardess Posted 31 December , 2010 Share Posted 31 December , 2010 Thanks Louise [and David for the x-ref]. Pity there are no details of the hospital/date/injury though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verrico2009 Posted 1 January , 2011 Author Share Posted 1 January , 2011 Thanks for the heads-up David - hadn't seen that. I know, Diane - can only hope that another portion will turn up somewhere and be recognised. Just thought it was better than not mentioning it.

David_Underdown Posted 2 January , 2011 Share Posted 2 January , 2011 And it gives unit info that may otherwise be unavailable for these RGA men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seany Posted 2 January , 2011 Share Posted 2 January , 2011 A useful find - is there a date for this? While I think of it, I'd forgotten I downloaded this while looking through some records and thought I'd post it in case it's of any interest. Hope it's legible.

SFayers Posted 2 January , 2011 Share Posted 2 January , 2011 Strubland Park hospital(?) 28/12/17 to 24/1/18 - 27 days in hospital. Andy - I think that's Shrubland Park (just outside Coddenham near Ipswich) - the 'hospital' probably being Shrubland Hall. cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ororkep Posted 2 January , 2011 Share Posted 2 January , 2011 While these lists can be very useful indeed, especially when there are no surviving service records and where the names on the rolls simply give Base Details; over 10 on this list do so. Caution is advised as something I have noticed on all these type of lists (I'm talking RGA entries only) are that they contain many errors. This one is no exception with over 12 noted out of the 27 entries after just a quick check. Some examples of the sort of errors I refer to: Hoopel 126801 is 121801 Durrant 98423 is 90423 Redup is REDRUP Rimer is RIMMER Gast 26670 with 2 sigs? is 26679 shown with 20 SB Orme A. 237 SB is ORME Harry shown with 337 SB Johnson 159456 is 159546 Thackray 338312 is 338132 And Whittlesen I believe is Whittlesea (gassed Sep1917). So just be warned and double check everything. Rgds Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Wade Posted 2 January , 2011 Share Posted 2 January , 2011 Yeah it could be Shrubland, it's a handwritten job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
