PLY/1890 Sergeant John Lobley Massam RMLI

[En-jay]

Hello there,

 

This maybe somewhat of a long shot, but I wonder if anyone may be able to assist - I am currently researching an individual by the name of Sergeant John Lobley Massam, Service No. PLY/1890 - in one of the search results (FindMyPast) for the Royal Marine Medal Roll Transcription it states in the 'Notes' section: "In photo of R.M. Senior NCOs, Globe & Laurel January 1918, page 20" - would I be correct in thinking that this particular individual is present in a photograph (?) and if so, could anyone advise on how I might be be able to obtain a copy/scan of the relevant page from this publication.

 

Many thanks.

There is an attestation pack for John Massam at the Fleet Air Arm Museum. He served in the RNAS from January 1917.

Very many thanks indeed for posting the image - much appreciated.

 

I have the register of service showing the transfer/enrolment from the Royal Marines to the RNAS in January 1917, I also have the census record of 1891 which shows him (then as a Private in the Royal Marines)  living with his family in Newport Street, East Stonehouse, Plymouth - which of course is close to Stonehouse barracks.

 

I wasn't aware of an attestation pack at the Fleet Air Arm Museum so thanks again for the information regarding that.
