jainvince Posted 3 April , 2014 Share Posted 3 April , 2014 I do keep the list updated when I notice posts on the Forum. However, I was perhaps expecting a few more becoming available now that more have been digitised. Remember, many members are happy to look up their WDs so if you have some new ones available and you are able to share them then if you create a post or PM me I will add to the master list.

GraemeClarke Posted 13 April , 2014 Share Posted 13 April , 2014 Morning Donald I wonder if you could help me with 1st Battalion, King’s Royal Rifle Corps for the week or so up to Tuesday 26 June 1917 I am researching a man who died of wounds on 26/6/17. Unfortunately he died at Bethune so it could be any time period when he was wounded but the WD may give me a clue, Many thanks, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jainvince Posted 28 April , 2014 Author Share Posted 28 April , 2014 I have today (once the emailer wakes up - I am travelling) circulated the latest updated version of the list of War Diaries held by members who can offer lookups. If you have previous versions but not the updated version (by Tuesday)then PM me or email me. If you would like a copy then PM me and I will send by return. The list includes British diaries held by Canadian Authorities. It also lists available Canadian, Australian and NZ Diaries. Links are also included for the Royal Engineers diaries. Once you get onto their website then you can obtain the full list. Useful links previously advised on this website are also included. If any member has any link or diary that they are prepared to share then please PM me and I will incorporate. Bernard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just bought the military cross for A pilot called Upfill who was shot down in his RE8 by a German ace.Any help photographs etc to help me with research would be great.

Brian Brian, I am looking to get hold of some of WO 95/4134. Primarily in relation to the 1/1st ELFA, but I'd be interested to see what you have.

brianmorris547 Posted 31 October , 2017 Share Posted 31 October , 2017 Andy I gave my hard copies to Bolton Library History Centre a couple of years ago when the WDs came up on Ancestry. I have got an index of names that appeared in the Bolton papers but this is only for Bolton men of 3 ELB and later 210 and 211 Brigades RFA.
