I have started adding the details where they have been given, although there is no need to do this.

Please, please, please, if you are going to delete a post then please don't. If you want you can leave the post in place and edit the post so that it says MEDALS NO LONGER IN MY POSSESSION. If you do sell or get rid of something on your list can I ask that you do leave them in place just incase a relative sees that a medal they are after still exists and you may be able to help the track it down.

Thanks for your help

Kevin

The names on the list are

Surname...Forename/Initial...Number...Unit...Post Number...Posters user name...Page number

Hi josturm

Thank goodness they are in alphabetical order😁😁, I have taken up the cudgel in maintaining the list and converting to a spreadsheet (see post #750).

 

Hi Tom

I have them tagged to include in the spreadsheet, there is a considerable amount of checking so I don’t make many mistakes, up to page 27 so just another 4 to get up to date.

Hello Tom,

For my recent birthday I received a trio to Pte. F,J Farley A.S.C. M2- 052423 (. 14/15 star)....the GSM  and VM were numbered M2- 052425 but records confirmed he must have been renumbered for some reason I don,t know!!

Hi Josturm

Sorry for delay in reply,didn’t see your post.

No you won’t see a spreadsheet yet, in post #750 I said it is work in progress and I am still working on it. Unfortunately the list had not been updated since 2009, I volunteered at the end of last year to pick up where Kevin left off, and it is a large task to collate all the info. that has been posted. Hang fire I am nearly there.

Hi Folks   -please see next message below

Trying to establish a link on here to my medal ownership spreadsheet/list, can someone have a look and let me know if either of these links work. please. I have been working with Tom, and I don’t think it fair to keep disturbing him to check my “experiments”, so I’m looking for some extra help:thumbsup:

 

Top link should be a spreadsheet with alphabetical tabs, the second is a supposed to be a list.

Or

https://www.dropbox.com/s/73cne9jb1gq3zyz/Mid 2018 Medal List 7.numbers?dl=0

 

 

GWF1967,thanks for the additions, sorry not added yet.

 

Cheers

John

Can you try again please people. 

If the link is selected then:-

It should come up with a excel symbol in the centre of page

At the bottom you are given two options, go to open website option.

Gives a preview unavailable message- however  in top right corner there are three dots, please select.

There are 3 options, select the one Direct Dowload, it should then open the spreadsheet.

If you select the second link it is the same process but will take slightly longer to open as it is just a single listing.

 

If it doesn’t work please pm me with your observations as I don’t want to waste space on the forum 

Thanks

It came up with 'no preview available' but below that 'download' which I clicked on and it worked fine.

 

Well done for all that work. Just to keep you on your toes....NamesList1.JPG.bd2f86bf652f444a86be642d3f36c63a.JPG  initial in wrong column !

Thanks Charlie

There will probably be a few of those, had to convert from unformatted text, a mix of commas and spaces into csv. 

At least I can make the changes for the next update......in January

Thanks for looking, I’m glad it’s coming together, just going through and making the necessary corrections, (including separating multiple serial numbers so it doesn’t think that it’s a phone number)

I will be adding all new info from the last couple of days when the above is sorted.

This looks like an outstanding resource.  Thanks, John, for your dedication in pulling it all together.

 

One dumb question...how does one access it?
