Many thanks for your reply.  Absolutely no hurry.  I was notified you'd sent a a PM, but I can't find it (perhaps because I don't understand how rootschat PM works)
Anyway, get back to me at your convenience
Thanks again

There seem to be a couple of Thomas Dwyers who joined up, purchased their discharge and re-joined around this time.  What was his date / place of birth so that I can find his record on findmypast?  If he was immediately posted as a Corporal, that suggests that he was previously in the militia to acheive such rapid promotion.

My guess would be LEAKIE - but it might be useful to see the whole of the entry.

I am doing some research on behalf of someone whose grandfather also served on the Whitby Abbey, from Feb 1915 till 1918.  Does anyone know whether the ship's logs for March and April 1915 exist anywhere?  It looks as though the logs held at The National Archives start in May.
Also, I'm sure my friend would love to see iwccc's grandfather's diary, or be in touch with iwccc - is this possible?
Many thanks
Newbie
