Guest Posted 27 October , 2020 Share Posted 27 October , 2020 Carded AE 19.1.24 ? Think it went on to either the War Office or IWGC card index-if indeed, they are not the same thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay dubaya Posted 27 October , 2020 Author Share Posted 27 October , 2020 (edited) Thanks for the lightning response Mike, my initial thought when I first saw it was ‘cancels’ which would make sense, it was only when I enlarged it that I got as far as ‘card...’, other forms in the sequence are annotated ‘card made...’ This note in question can only relate to the adjustment of grave numbers and so I can’t see the WO being interested in that... the date however is interesting...

Guest Posted 27 October , 2020 Share Posted 27 October , 2020 I think it just means either a new card was added to the index to keep it up to date or an existing one was amended. The note on GRU is merely to note that it had been done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
