For Freeb sake, you are all very sharp in here. Well done to all the sleuths, it didn't phase any of you in the slightest.

 Kind regards.

And we are back on track. This guy  cannot find. He is from Patrick Street, Mullingar, County Westmeath. Can you help please, that is if you are finished your pints and priests.

I tried all the variables but not a sausage. Please help me!! I read it as William Mullins, but it could be something else completely.

Kind regards.

'Mornin all!.

I hope no one has a hang over after our celebrations last evening with all the free virtual booze.

24628 Pte Murnane, Patrick, R.D.F.

Please help me with this one if you would. He was discharged with TB and died from it. In order to have him sent forward I need the document that show the T.B. was caused by or aggreviated by his service. I have not found that document in FMP and he has only one set of records in there as far as I can see.

His records on FMP without the vital doc-

Thanks George, but he died in France. It was worth a shot though. Thank you for trying, very much appreciated!

Kind regards.

Perhaps this might prove easier. He is not in FMP as far as I can see, believe me I have tried my best, but he must have had war service, and probably discharged with spinal problems. Can anyone help please?

Kind regards.
