Hi Mebe, Great you will see from drop down bar you can search other things as well,  apparently they are going to do the same for World War 2 as well probably a long way off,
Good luck

Thanks vowgirl,

will have another look, as for the second world war they have started some. Unfortunately it looks as though they are only going to release Unit War Diaries on line from the larger corps, which is a shame as they can shed so much light on the where's and when's of a units, therefor a service persons military history.

Cheers and thank you once again for your help

I'm aware that you posted your note a while ago but I'm the grandson of Edward Charles Darcy . I'm the son of Betty Darcy.  We still have  the family home at Lauriston  where all the Darcy's were born and we have a large number of photographs of the whole family.  I have very fond memories of driving around in Percy's truck while we delivered poultry to different places in Kyneton. My mum stayed with Grandma Darcy Jessie Christie) often at Lauriston If I can  be of any assistance please contact me.

Hi Darcy,

Trying again to get into contact with you. mebe is my sister, so we're both chasing the same lines. I've got some wonderful stuff that no one's seen for 40+ years that i'd love to share with you, including a 15 page letter from Tom that was written from when he signed up, to when he got to his first posting, a lot of other letters too, especially from Percy to his Aunt Em and Uncle James. You're the closest connection we've come across yet to share these things with, would love to send you copies of everything! Please get back into contact.

Hi

 have found a record for John Darcy whose next of kin is his wife Sophia. He was rejected for duty in the first world war and enlisted in the second world war at the age of 53.
Year of birth 1888.
Also Darcy, Frederick Gordon; age 27; born - Launceston Vic

[VictorianDreamer]

So either John signed up under another name or it's between the following brothers that remained:
Frederick Gordon Darcy, Edward Charles Darcy or Albert James Darcy.
