We have the MOD records for 1st and 2nd World War for all the above but no information on injury except he went to Woolwich to convalesce in December 1915. We are trying to find out what his wound was. I will let my friend Caroline take up the rest of the thread Brian as this man is her grandad. Margaret Does her local library have access to The Times Digital Archive in order to access the Official Casualty Lists. Now that you have narrowed down the dates he should be easy to find. Brian.

Margaretnolan Posted 17 August , 2018 Share Posted 17 August , 2018 Brian. I’m not sure but I will check with them on Monday. Margaret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEW Posted 18 August , 2018 Share Posted 18 August , 2018 I did look at The Casualty Lists on The Genealogist and British Newspaper Archive and did a Newspaper search on the BNA (Not including The Times). I tried both WWI numbers with no luck. However, The Genealogist only has The Times 1/1/1915 - 26/4/1915 and then 1/7/1915 to 31/8/1915 so doesn't actully include the time frame he was in France. BNA only has the Casualty Lists for 1917 & 1918. If access to The Times is found then you only need to search Sept - Dec 1915. It is possible that his Wound Stripe is for another injury that again is not showing up on the above resources. TEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
