Title: Edinburgh Gazette Article, 1918
Post by: LinJ on Wednesday 24 March 10 15:58 GMT (UK)

My cousin is looking for an article that may have been in the Edinburgh Gazette roughly 18 March 1918.  It may also have been in the London Gazette around that time too.

The article is about Robert (Bert) Forsyth Brow and the battle of Cambrai in 1917.

Can anyone advise me on how she could access this?  Would it be best to try the library in Edinburgh?

Thanks.

Hi

You should be able to search both the London Gazette and Edinburgh Gazette here

You can change edition at top left of page under 'London Gazette'

Thanks for the web address Rosie.

My cousin says that she tried the website and she found the entry in the London Gazette & the Edinburgh Gazette but not the article/photo.
