Great stuff, he has now been accepted, Terry could not find the correct card.

Well done to all. We are having quite a successful day, are we not?

Quite an early death for a missing man.

 

He's #4785 Irish Guards  but only 1 pension card so far that has no relevant details.

In the back of the net!! Terry says don;t send anymore today as the site is down for adjustments. I think they might need more memory eh?

What a team.

Thanks again for all the help it was not possible with you

Nothing for Healey that I can see in the WFA records other than one card saying 'died of disease after discharge'. No further information as to agg/att etc.

I can see anything obvious for Higgins either in the WFA records.

Celbridge Mark. Thanks for staying with this, he's a tricky one sure enough.

This man looks like he could qualify it the critical sheet could be found, it is not in FMP. Can you help please?

Certainly the right man, #10/26266 died 8 Dec 1918 but his pension card adds not extra information re death.

Bummer Craig, that's sad. He will be remembered with the Irishmen anyway,

Thank you very much for all your help.

Kind regards.

Ancestry has some docs for McCormack indexed under 252066 here. Nothing significant that I can see.

Struggling to find on FMP

Thank you Craig, I was working on the assumption that McCormack was 10/26266 not 252066. There is nothing on 252066 on FMP.

https://search.findmypast.co.uk/record?id=GBM%2FWO363-4%2F007381963%2F00933&parentid=GBM%2FWO363-4%2F7381963%2F33%2F933

 Thank for Sherry, I did have Matthew already in with the Kildare lads. Great to find his records.

 Thank you again for all your help.

Kind regards.

Mark's link does take us to 26266 and it includes a letter from him  acknowledging receipt of SWB and written in Peamount, Jan 1917

His pension record is certainly 10/26266

It was Mark in post #3891 - it was dodgy indexing of the record under the wrong number.
