Agree with g a r,that capital R on the surname is unmistakeable.

Thank you g a r and George. Can you give your opinion on these two as well and compare them to the above. One was 1915 and the other 1917.

Been having quite a lot of trouble tracking this gent down. Thought they were two different people at first. Quite a saga.

If I can take a hand, again the second two seem to be from the same person, but again in my opinion this is the same person as in the first pair.
Ayres Brignell Cornwell Harvey Shipp  Stimpson Stubbings (all Cambs) Baumber Baxter Burton Ethards Proctor Stanton (all Lincs) Luffman (all counties)

Thank you Redroger for the confirmation. I believe finally we have deduced that these four signatures of what we thought were two different people are in fact one person ::)

Thank you again to g a r and George too
