Remembered Today:

Army Service Corps

The last couple of days I have managed to find relatives and names on my grandmother's side of the family. I am pretty sure I have discovered her brother and am posting some Medal Card details in the hope of finding more information.

As there is nothing in our family information other than 'they were descended from the Hugenots, and her brother had migraines', it is another of those clue by clue searches.

George Bentote, Temproary Warrant Officer Class 1

Army Service Corps SS/19302

In the medal section

RASB/101B253 page 26015

I couldnt find anything in Pension papers or any other lists.

Any clues gratefully received

Cheers

Shirley

Shirley,

The SS prefix to his number refers to Supply Specials and Labour - Special Enlistments

suggesting that his ASC job was related to what he had been doing previously in civi-street

regards

Michael

Hello Michael!

Thanks for that, in 1911 he was "Publisher of a Weekly Newspaper", so I wonder what job that would lead to.

Cheers

Shirley
