Re Abbreviations

[kelly]

Good evening all,

 

I'm currently researching the 8 Beechey boys of which 5 fell in the Great War.

 

I have access to Frank Beecheys effects on Ancestry and do not understand 4 abbreviations set against certain amounts of money.

 

Is there anyone who could give me an overview of the following abbreviations please.

 

R G 3462

Transfers 509

L? P Base

Cox?a?b?o

 

Anyone with any ideas ?

They're both internal reference details to the best of mu knowledge.

I've looked at a lot of effects records whilst researching my book and I've tried, and failed, to tie up many of the various reference which occur as the original paperwork no longer exists to tie it up further. If anyone can ever shed any light I'd be more than happy to receive the information.

Craig,

 

Thanks for your input.

 

Cox & Co is certainly an odd one

 

If I find out anything I will up-date you
