RaySearching Posted 18 January , 2016 Share Posted 18 January , 2016 Hi All I have just come across a whole series of war Gratuity for soldiers who died after discharge the series numbers are as follows The series runs for men who were discharged from service from 1916 to 1918 approx and died after discharge a quick look shows many of the men died very shortly after being discharged from service I am sure there will be many none commemorated among them it also may clear up a few elusive memorial men as a couple I have looked at there is no mention of their death shown on the corresponding MIC Regards Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss002d6252 Posted 18 January , 2016 Share Posted 18 January , 2016 I've seen some of these before. It was the retrospective payments due to the war gratuity not being issued until 1919. I had wondered about non-com etc but never followed up as I had my hands full with writing my article and thought it may be a big task.

stevem49 Posted 19 January , 2016 Share Posted 19 January , 2016 The IFCP are currently going through soldiers effects records to pick up any non-coms or errors. Lots of 'possible' errors and occasional non-coms so far. I am in the middle of British West Indian chaps at present. Ray - I am sure Terry Denham would like to have any you may feel are non-coms Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
