In the Service Record of 5454 Stephen Edward Higgs, Cheshire Regiment are three pages of Casualty List HA 3839 - France, November 1916. As far as I can tell the list showing the RE and the RAMC has not been indexed by FMP. In the record there is also a partial list (which I was researching) and two other lists HA 3594 and HA 4532 which, unfortunately, do not show any names. Here is the list with the RE and RAMC. I will post the other two parts tomorrow.

Private G. Smith, R.A.M.C. (service number 3) alludes me. There are three Smiths with the service number 3 (A.Smith, E. Smith and J. Smith) in the R.A.M.C. according to the Medal Information Cards.

There are a lot of mistakes on these lists, I spend a lot of time checking the RE names for accuracy.

I think this G Smith must be 3 (later 403003) James Smith of Quarry Mount Terrace, Leeds. He has a Service Record on Ancestry. He enlisted into the West Riding Field Ambulance (TF) in 1913. His Statement of Services and Military History (images 152231 and 152232 / 639645) record that he served in France from 28/07/1916 to 01/11/1916 with the West Riding FA. This seems to agree with the data on the list, although there is no AF B 103 to confirm Trench Fever.

It's a shame (for me) that it is not A. Smith as I have his medal pair.

H A 7229 - France, February 1917.

In the Pension Record WO 364 of 126829 Henry Sears RGA. (982 on Ancestry)

At first glance William Benson RE enlisted into the Infantry in Belfast in 1915. He was discharged and then enlisted into the RE with number 200240 and then WR 354982. In 1919 he enlisted into the Kings Liverpool Regt 103081.

Delighted to post the first one of these I've found :D ...

 

Dates around late Jan 1916.

 

It was in a KRRC OR's service record, but the man is not on this list.  The other side is a "hand made" Medical History form that appears to have been prepared at the Rifle Record Office, but the top is missing.  Looks like recycling of obsolete paper again.

There's another topic regarding such lists in Canadian service records. British troops are seen on the same list with the one Newfoundlander. The list is stamped 'Newfoundland Contingent pay & records office, London SW'.

I tried a search on FMP and had no results for the names/numbers so this list never made it into a British set of records.

There is a pdf for the Newfoundlander's file and two lists (separate incidents) with his details have been included in his own records.

There are details for another 41 British troops. Perhaps the Newfoundland record office ignored the paper shortage and retained the lists for inclusion as opposed to using the reverse for a variety of reasons.

Missed the Arnside fire as well so potentially a lot of undamaged lists within Canadian files.

The last batch for now. The previous posts and this one cover lists found in around 100 Newfoundland Regt. Service Records from Abbott to Anthony, John Robert. More to come
