per ardua per mare per terram Posted 28 July , 2007 Share Posted 28 July , 2007 John, they wrote several. The one I referred to for Robbins was WH Fevyer & JW Wilson, The 1914 Star to the Royal Navy & Royal Marines available as a Naval & Maritimes books reprint and on inter library loan. Sorry I thought the full reference had already been given earlier. The roll is in ADM 171/139 at Kew, but they have added extras like the reprint of the Times POW list.

spithead Posted 28 July , 2007 Share Posted 28 July , 2007 hello all, just a simple question, can anyone tell me , what is feyyer and wilson,s roll and how do you access it. thankyou all, john Hello John W.H.Fevyer & J.W.Wilson published a number of books on medal rolls, here are just a few, Africa General Service Medal to RN/RM Naval General Service Medal to RN/RM China War Medal 1900 to RN/RM Distinguished Service Medal 1914-20 RN, also DSM 1939-46 Queens South Africa Medal to RN/RM Hope this helps Regards John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calvin Posted 28 July , 2007 Author Share Posted 28 July , 2007 thankyou both for that it has answered my question, where is the best place to obtain these books, or loan them, library etc. thanks again, regards, john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per ardua per mare per terram Posted 28 July , 2007 Share Posted 28 July , 2007 Naval & Maritimes Press have reprinted the campaign rolls, so you can buy from them, amazon, abebooks and other such book sites. The Distinguished Service Medal 1939-1946 seems easier to get the 1914-20 one. I would have thought Grimsby would have had them in the library.

calvin Posted 29 July , 2007 Author Share Posted 29 July , 2007 hello, i am afraid the library has not got them, it is of interest to me as i have a large family group who served in both world wars, it might be a good source of referance, thanks for info. regards, john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
