Hi Doug,

A big thank you to you also for that extra bit of information on my Gt Gt Uncle Arthur Ernest. Does the cd have anything else or is that all the cd has basically? I went to the medal card site and do you know besides of buying the cards how I can find out what medals he received?

Again thank you so much for this

regards
Shannon

That is all the info on the cd,there is no other way to get the information on the medals other than to go to the National Archive in London and look up the Medal Card yourself,I would think it would cost more than £3.50  :D

Regards Doug.

Hi.

Arthur's medal card is on Anc***** his No. seems to be S/6451.

Also if he married in 1915 so is his allegation.

Hi,

Sorry - standard (I thought) internet acronym - Significant Other, a generic and non specific term that include wife, partner, girlfriend...

And - hello!

I earlier saw a topic by 'Sharon' regarding Arthur Ernest Bice who died in WW1. It seems that we MAY be related. My father was named Arthur Ernest Bice, this is one of a couple of names used by the family. Others are Arthur John (mine), Alfred Ernest and Alfred John. I have a photo of the relation who died in WW1. My grandparents lived in Seven Sisters Road, Tottenham, N15, we lived in Park Lane, N17.
