Knotty Posted 6 July , 2021 Share Posted 6 July , 2021 As promised the latest spreadsheet list of medals owned/relinquished by Pals of the Forum, as of today there are 3804 individuals named. As previous I have divided it into alphabetical sheets to account for the numbers,I have not created a single page listing*. I have also put it into Microsoft format(excel), please let me know if there are any anomalies as it came from a Mac and there might well be some formatting issues. Below is the link which should take you to the copy on Dropbox, if it doesn’t let me know and I will try to resolve any problems😁 https://www.dropbox.com/s/d3zp67m999gv7l3/2021%20Medals%20Ownership%20Master%20list.xlsx?dl=0 * If you want a single list again let me know and I will see what I can do John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triumph2000 Posted 9 July , 2021 Share Posted 9 July , 2021 Poor timing on my part, given you've just published an updated list, but I can add a pair currently in my possession: Pte William Henderson, 57571 Kings Liverpool Regiment (2/7 & 18th Battalions) - BWM & Victory. Thanks for doing this - what a mammoth task! All the best, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knotty Posted 9 July , 2021 Share Posted 9 July , 2021 Thanks Ben. Every little helps as they say, don’t worry about the timing, he will be featured in the next release,goodness knows when😁 John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knotty Posted 10 July , 2021 Share Posted 10 July , 2021 Hi all Well I have added Bens pair,so unless there are anymore takers I will be putting it to bed until I have sufficient numbers to make it worth while to update and publish again.

Steve Goodall Posted 30 July , 2021 Share Posted 30 July , 2021 Very new to forum and medal collecting. Here are the ones I have: Harry Mawson, RGA, MM, VM and BWM Bertram Farley, RA & RE, MM, VM and BWM William Hemmings, RAMC, VM and BWM (would love to reunite his 1914 Star) Frederick Sear, RGA, VM and BWM William Ryves, Worcestershire Regiment, VM and BWM Thomas Helme, RE, 1914-15 Star, VM and BWM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knotty Posted 30 July , 2021 Share Posted 30 July , 2021 Hi Steve Welcome to the Forum, and thank you for the list. I will add them as soon as possible, but you may have to wait for the next publication to see them listed, and I normally wait until I have a sufficient number. Just to inform you that there is a link to all medals that Forum members hold and wish to disclose some 4 posts previous to yours. In case you haven’t seen it I have checked to see if the chap you would like to reunite is on the database but alas no. (I do believe the British Medal Forum have a dedicated section for such a purpose, you might like to have a look in there.) Thanks again.

Steve Goodall Posted 30 July , 2021 Share Posted 30 July , 2021 Thanks Knotty. I did check your list on Dropbox a week or so ago. An amazing job you've done there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Strawbridge Posted 31 July , 2021 Share Posted 31 July , 2021 In the listing is "Tully Stanley 729". There is no indication as to regiment. I have in my collection a group of five medals (includes BWM and victory) named to 729 PTE. S. TULLEY/TULLY. W. YORK. R. Hopefully the person who provided the information sees this note as it is possible that he has a WW1 star which might help me complete the group.

Hi Jim Sorry for the intrusion, I missed this post and I’m just wondering if you have made contact with said person? On checking it appears that they have not visited since just before your post, so maybe a pm is required🙂 John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Strawbridge Posted 13 August , 2021 Share Posted 13 August , 2021 (edited) Nigel, thank you, It looks like I acquired your medal group.

Knotty Posted 13 August , 2021 Share Posted 13 August , 2021 Satisfactory outcome then, the thread is serving its purpose 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knotty Posted 15 September , 2021 Share Posted 15 September , 2021 Thanks for the PM with your medals Andrew. Just to clarify, we only list ownership on this thread. We hope to keep requests on the sales and wants thread, but we tend to let a first one go through.😁 John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museumtom Posted 17 September , 2021 Author Share Posted 17 September , 2021 (edited) Just to recap. Please look at the first page of this post. There is nothing for sale or wanted on this post. It was established that way as those in possession of suitable items may not post if they are going to be pursued to sell them. I ask the Mods to remove any wanted post please. 'The complete list of existing awards to men, be it a certificate, medal plaque etc held by myself and other forum members are on page 14 of this topic. The entire list is managed by the tireless efforts of Kevinaka1888. The list got a bit corrupted when guys posted awards and then deleted their post so the original reference is lost. It has now been brought up to date again by Kevin. If you decide to delete your posting please let Kevin know so he can update the list and keep it current. Remember this is not a wants topic, there is nothing offered for sale here. This list contains awards, medals etc to ww1 personnel held at the time of posting by forum pals who should be applauded for doing so. I had asked some medal dealers to add their list, they talked the talk but did not walk the walk. If you wish to contact anyone regarding the items in their possession and come to some arrangement then the best of luck to you. I will say it again, there is nothing for sale here.'
