Skipman Posted 18 January , 2009 Share Posted 18 January , 2009 I have a letter from the Rev W A Gillies to one of his parishioners dated 22/3/1917 . Has anyone come across this man. I have his MIC was just looking for more general info on him. Was he a chaplain to a particular Bn? He returned home after the war and was local minister up to 1949. What was I.B.D ? Any information appreciated Cheers Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 18 January , 2009 Share Posted 18 January , 2009 Thanks Barry. I should have looked there first. I have quite a bit on him in Scotland, but am looking for more on his time in WW1. Cheers Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
