Duncan Posted 5 July , 2003 Share Posted 5 July , 2003 Does anyone know what the following references mean on three Medal Index Cards ? NW/5/24601, NW/6/24703 and NW/9/2754. One card is to a man who was killed when the Germans shelled Hartlipool in 1914, the other two in the Dublin uprising of 1916. The two 'Dublin' men were officers but their cards do not refer to medals issued. The other man had a single British War Medal. Cheers, Duncan.

Guest Ian Bowbrick Posted 5 July , 2003 Share Posted 5 July , 2003 Is there a date say in 1922 or 1923 after the references like 12/11/22? Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted 6 July , 2003 Author Share Posted 6 July , 2003 Yes, One has the date 25/3/22 and the other 4/4/22 - the Dublin ones. The Hartlepool one does not have thi sdate but a reference E/76101/3. Cheers, Duncan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ian Bowbrick Posted 6 July , 2003 Share Posted 6 July , 2003 I believe these refer to the date of the despatch of campaign medals. If anyone knows any better, I would be interested. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted 9 July , 2003 Author Share Posted 9 July , 2003 Hi, It's a bit of a mystery, as they served ony in Irelend and the UK, not abroad, and were not entitled to any medals ! Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
