Cornwall / Mawgan-in-Pydar, Police Station
« on: Thursday 23 October 25 10:13 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,
I'm trying to locate where the Police Station was in Mawgan-in-Pydar. My Great Grandfather Thomas Sambles was stationed there in the early 1910's/1920's prior to being moved to St Issey. My Nan was also born there in 1918.
Thanks
David

World War Two / WW2 National/Auxiliary Fire Service records
« on: Friday 08 March 24 15:47 GMT (UK) »
Afternoon all,
I'm looking for some assistance on where I can find my Grandads Auxiliary Fire Service Record.
He served in the Castleford/Pontefract/Garforth areas of West Yorkshire during the early stages of the war until he was injured in the Xmas raid on Salford after being drafted in to assist in fire fighting at the docks.
From there he went on to serve in the fire service at the Royal Ordnance Factory Filling Station No9 at Thorp Arch where he eventually became Station Officer.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Dave

Armed Forces / Re: Samuel Sneyd Which Regiment
« on: Thursday 03 August 23 23:36 BST (UK) »
I have found a Samuel Sneed in the Canadian archives in a Garrison Battalion in 1781/82.
His Son did emigrate to America in 1816. I'm wondering if Samuel emigrated to America and joined a Loyalist Regiment? The only one I can find that existed at that time was the 105th. And then returned to the UK at the end of the war.

Hi Shaun,
The only clues I have is the title of the document mentioning "Served in Canada" and a Regiment between the 105th and 135th Foot.
He marries in 1785 in Audley his given place of residence and birth.

Armed Forces / Samuel Sneyd Which Regiment
« on: Wednesday 02 August 23 19:39 BST (UK) »
Hello all,
I'm trying in vain to find out which regiment my 5x Great Grandfather Samuel Sneyd (Snead/Sneed) served in during the wars in Canada.
I have his Chelsea Pensioner record stating that he was wounded in the wars in Canada sometime between 1771 and 1783 prior to being admitted into the "Royal Garrison Battalion" in Chester.
He was born around 1754-1756 in Audley in Staffordshire.
Any help would be appreciated.
