World War One / Re: War Diary
« on: Sunday 07 July 24 15:28 BST (UK)  »
Thank you all.  My mistake with the date, I should have checked my own records.....

Should have read 1917, my gt uncle was apparently mentioned in a diary, which I know was unusual as he was not an officer. He performed an act of great bravery and would have been recommended for a Victoria Cross had the witnesses/officer lived to do so.

Essex Lookup Requests / Emily Bonney

Has anyone access to either baptism records or census records for Ballingdon, Essex. I am looking for the parents of Emily Bonney who was born in 1860/61 in Ballingdon, Essex.   Sometimes miss transcribed as Bassingdon.

Be grateful for any help. Thanks Coppernob

Thank you, this what I feared. Lucky with my own family but, got stuck trying to help a friend. A reg no would be a great help, they have nothing.

World War One / Another Smith mystery
« on: Thursday 08 November 18 20:48 GMT (UK)  »
Where do I start when only having a name, D.o.b. & place of birth to find Army records?

Lancelot Reginald Smith, born 1889 in Norfolk. His family know he was in the Army, how do we go about finding more about him? I know, I know Smith is not the easiest name to research.

Hoping someone can guide/help us.  Thank you
