Hi serra
Arthur Thomas Arnold was my husbands grandfather.  I have been looking for Edwin's death for a while.  Where and when did Edwin die and what off.  I was told he drowned in the Thames!

World War Two / Can't understand WW2 service record
« on: Thursday 16 January 14 20:40 GMT (UK)  »
I have my grandfathers service records and towards the end of his service I think he was in Germany.  Does anyone know what these means:
NWE          HAM GARR & TRANSIT UNIT
B.A.O.R.     No. 6 Leave centre
                  H.Q.B.T.B
                  X (2) List

He also served in Palestine, Burma and was evacuated from Dunkirk so I have lots more of things I can't understand on his records.  Hope someone can help me.

Hi Sa11525,

For some reason it won't let me send a personal message to you.  Anyway, I am still looking for the families of John and Mercy Arnold, I would like to find their parents, especially John's as he is in my line.  One person I am also trying to find out more about is their grandson Edwin Arnold born 1871 at Chatham and his wife Elizabeth (possibly Merchant or Merchant Barnes).  I have not found a death for Edwin yet.  Elizabeth had about 13 children with different fathers as well as Edwin and did not marry them all.  A lot of the children she put into care and they ended up in Canada. It is all very confusing.
Any help or info that we can swap would be great.
Regards
 :)

Hi, I am new to this site and am also looking for John Arnold and descendants.  Is it true that John's wife Mercy died in the county lunatic asylum in Barming, Maidstone?
