Derek Robertson Posted 30 March , 2011 Share Posted 30 March , 2011 Though many, I must admit, are just heartbreakingly lengthy lists of killed and wounded. Heart breaking indeed. Thank you for making your sources available Carolyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hen190782 Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Carol I have been trawling through the Belfast Evening Telegraph and photographing pictures of servicemen - some of the men will be from Gordon Highlanders and other Scottish regiments. I am already feeding images Black Watch servicemen to "Armagh" and am happy to do the same for Gordon Highlanders - if you are interested in receiving a list of the GH men for whom I have images, drop me a PM with your email address. The same offer applies to anyone researching other Scottish regiments and I am also happy to search my 5,000+ library for individual servicemen.

steven belfast Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Nigel could you have s look for James (evatt) Clulow although from the Lisbon road he joined the Gordon in 1900 and seen service in the boer war as well as ww1 at the outbreak of war he was living in James street bessbrook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolm Posted 1 April , 2011 Author Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Steve Re: James Evatt Clulow 2nd Batt Gordon Highlanders 7230 I'm having no luck finding him, which is a surprise as you seem to have evidence he WAS wounded, so he should be there somewhere. I'm having trouble finding anything about him - he doesn't seem to be with the 2nd Bn in India in 1911 (unless his name is incorrectly transcribed). So far all I've found is a record of his Boer War medal (1st Bn). I'll keep checking. Carolyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven belfast Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Carolyn He was transferred to the royal engineers after he was wounded which resulted in a number change could that be the reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hen190782 Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Carolyn - email with GH servicemen photos sent. Steven - no James Clulow in my library but I will add him to the "watching for" list ...

Adam Llewellyn Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Hello Carolyn, Thanks for this very kind offer, would you have anything on the following please? 4TH SEAFORTH HIGHLANDERS 266403 DIED 30.04.1918 12TH HIGHLAND LIGHT INFANTRY 282439 KIA 20.03.1918 10/11TH HIGHLAND LIGHT INFANTRY 282180 KIA 22.03.1918 1/7TH ARGYLL AND SUTHERLAND HIGHLANDERS 4030 KIA 15.06.1916 1/5TH KINGS OWN SCOTTISH BORDERERS 42216 KIA 31.10.1918 I've got another half dozen or so on the Absent voters list which i'll pm with my e mail address.

steven belfast Posted 1 April , 2011 Share Posted 1 April , 2011 Carolyn Here is a picture of James Clulow service record, detailing his wound, dosent say were it happened which is something else i would like to find out as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolm Posted 3 April , 2011 Author Share Posted 3 April , 2011 Hello Llew, I haven't had any luck with your list, with the exception of Joseph Venable on the Absent Voter list. He was on a POW list for the 2nd Royal Scots Fusiliers on 15/3/1915. I then found him on a POW list with more details. It shows he was captured 11/12/1914 and repatriated 2/1/1919 and his address was Highfield St, Anstey. I thought I was in luck with another absent voter. I found a Bonser (Leicester)in HLI, wounded list 29/9/1917 but it was Herbert - 29563 not Thomas. I'll email the Venable casualty list of 15/3/1915 to you and the other extract is here: Carolyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin kenf48 Posted 3 April , 2011 Admin Share Posted 3 April , 2011 Hi, and thank you for your offer. I'm researching the 'hospital raid' on Etaples on 20/05/1918, my great uncle Pte P Foster S/14176 14th Bn A & S Highlanders was killed during the raid, along with 12 other Scottish soldiers (out of 82), six were from his Bn but no individual service records survive for them. One of the others was Pte(?) S/41533 S Mcfadyen 1st Bn Gordon Highlanders; do you have any information on him, especially an earlier record of wounds? I'm trying to establish why they were there and appreciate there is no guarantee they were together, or all died in the raid. (I know the war diary for the 14th Bn has what remains of the Bn after the German March offensive training American troops on that date). Thanks to forum pals I have the death notices from 'The Scotsman' for the 20th/21st deaths. I can PM the full list to see if any earlier 'woundings' are listed among this group but note you said they stopped listing them in 1918 and I'm assuming these would all have been recorded post March 21st, (again I understand they could just as easily been convalescing from sickness, in transit, or any of the many other reasons to be at the IBD) but wonder if your database can help with this query.

carolm Posted 4 April , 2011 Author Share Posted 4 April , 2011 Hello Ken, I haven't been able to find anything on the names of those A&SH men who died on 19/20 May. As you mentioned, the Scotsman stopped publishing lists of wounded in early January 1918. I don't know how likely it would be that anyone wounded before that would still be at Etaples. But anyway, I couldn't find any details. McFadyen's Service Record is available, but it looks to me as if he (just) died from wounds rather than from any later German action, but I could be wrong. Sorry I can't be more help.Good luck. Carolyn Bye the way, McFadyen is indexed on Ancestry as: Archibald McFadyen abt 1894 Island Farm, Strachur 29 His A&SH number was S/21311 but Ancestry shows it as 21391 - but it is him.
