Thanks, Carole,

I was hoping to find out where he was injured, but it seems I have found all available online sites. However I am hoping someone might know any RGA sites, etc.!

World War One / Walter William Paxman
« on: Monday 03 July 17 14:41 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find out more about my Great-Uncle Will's WW1 service. He lost a leg in WW1 (c.25th August  1917) and received the Silver War Badge, having enlisted as a Gunner in RGA 1915 and was discharged 1919. Service number 91618. In spite of this information I don't know which battle he was wounded in, nor where he was treated. Please can anyone help?

Thanks,

Totnor

I have looked in those records, to no avail. I think his must be part of the records burnt in the Blitz, sadly. Thank you, though!

WW Paxman was born in Yarpole, Herefordshire in 1885. He subsequently married Ada Ruth Smith and lived in Wiltshire. He was a Gunner in RGA during WW1 and was injured in thw summer of 1917 - resukting in the loss of  leg. I have found him on 1911 and previous censuses, and also his Medial Card. Does anyone know motre about his war service and the loss of his leg, please? He subsequently returned to Wiltshire, dying in Westbury in 1953. He was a gamekeeper.

Dorset Lookup Requests / Christchurch Union
« on: Tuesday 03 May 16 20:06 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for a Frances Mary Andrews who gave birth to a daughter, Gladys E, on 8 March 1910 in Christchurch Union (Fairmile House). The workhouse records for that date are in Dorset Archives in Dorchester - Creed Register - NG/HH/CC (1888-1911). If anyone is there could you please look up the admission and discharge records for her, please? I live in Scotland!

Many thanks in hope.

Galdys is in a house with three other unrelated babies in 1911. I phoned Hampshire Archives to ask what records they have, but was told any rtecords will be in Dorset. No reply from them yet. I livein hope!
Thanks anyway.

I cannot find her on 1911 census. We've just found her name on Gladys's birth certificate.I should have thought she would have been in the Christchurch/Bournemouth area, as was described as a kitchen maid in Bournemouth. Presumably would have been fired from that job! No father for Gladys mentioned, of course. There are lots of Frances, Frances M and Frances Mary on all the censuses, but none leaps out as a likely candidate.  She may even have been married too! Hence my request...
