Unfortunately that's just an index and also available on FindMyPast
I'll give the diaries a go as a long shot . He did give one of his sons the middle name Beaumont who was born Jan 1917 I'm guessing that its also a reference to where he was at that date

World War One / POW reports
« on: Friday 28 July 17 06:27 BST (UK) »
I am currently researching my wife's great grandfather Charles William Blackamore who was a POW in WW1 . He was captured 26 October 1917 at Gheluvelt he was in 9th Batt Devonshire regiment. He was repatriated in May 1918 via his home town of Boston but as he was recruited in Bilston it was not reported in the local paper Sadly his service record is lost but he did give information about his imprisonment but his report was one that was not printed (WO 161/100/337/1150 )
. Is this information he gave still in existence? If so how can it be obtained? I did download the entry from Kew but it was just the index also on FindMyPast .
Also he was according to his Medal card originally in South Staffordshires then transferred to Devon's was the South Staffs a training regiment supplying replacements?

Armed Forces / Foot Guards Detachment, North Camp Aldershot
« on: Tuesday 17 September 13 20:09 BST (UK) »
Like many others I have an ancestor who is found in the 1861 census listed as Foot Guards Detachment, North Camp Aldershot
Is there any way of finding out if the regiment is definitely the Coldstream Guards before parting with a search fee?
