I have now updated the Master List (as at 15 August 2014)and am ready to circulate to all on the circulation list. I have entered those WDs emailed to me and those recently listed on this forum. If amy member has a diary which could be included then either list in the forum or PM and I will include it on what is becoming a very extensive list. If you would like to be included on the circulation then please let me know and you will receive the latest version hopefully this weekend.

Thanks Graeme and also thanks to all who have diaries on the list.

I have had rejection emails from around half a dozen members who normally receive the list.

If you haven't received your copy yet then please PM me you email address or reserve email address and I will keep trying to get it to you. Pity the few who get it twice.

I am seeking the war diary of the 125th Company of the Army Ordnance Corps diary from 1914-1917. I've been quoted 'over £500' for the AOC War Diary from Kew. Can anyone suggest how I can track down where the 125th Company was sent during the war?

Graeme :

Sorry for the delay... just checked in !!!! ....thanks for that information...... sorry to be a pain but that diary only shows up to Feb, 1918 and I'm really after March / April 1918 .. I know 16th Battalion was split up / re-attached etc., in early 1918 but if you can point me in the right direction I'd much appreciate it ... I also know my relation was in 12th Entrenching Battalion attached to 7th Royal West Kents on the specific day 4th Apr ... should I search there ???

Thanks again and regards EWMCG

If any member wants a copy of the list then please PM me their email address. Please note that if you have already received a copy of the list then you will automatically be sent the revised version.

Although the latest version was sent out just the other day, further requests for the list plus some recent additions as well as a problem faced by one recipient, I have revised and re-issued the Master list to all recipients.

If anyone has a problem then please PM or email me.
