I have searched every online record for mention of his OBE.  I still haven't come across anything, but there has to be some place that keeps an ongoing record of who receives them wouldn't you think??  I am still searching.

I think that the London Gazette reported on any honours - it's free to search the archive here:

Unless Derik has already checked this?

Contact the place that gives them out - Buck Palace/Royals, go to website and email everyone until they direct you to the archives.

As they only started in 1917 they wont have much to search  ;D

Thank you I will try to find their email addresses and start emailing them.  I did search everything I could online, and only found that it had something to do with Drama and arts.  Thank you everyone for all the ideas you have mentioned, sooner or later I will find it.

Thank you wonderful group

Hello everyone,

     I just opened my email to find beautiful photos of my G-Grandfathers headstone taken kindly by MancsMan, and I would love to send him a sincere Thank you.  I have printed out the photos for my records and saved them on a back up disc so if computer does go down again it wouldn't be lost.   Thank you !!!!!

I received from Derik del copy of the cemetery record of my G-Grandfather and G-Grandmother, I send a sincere Thank you to him as well....Thank you !!


Also to my surprise I received an astounding amount of information from Migky, who so kindly researched  the youngest of my Great Uncles Robert L Boal and brought me to present with that part of the line and I can finally make contact with a 1st Cousin once removed!!!  I send a sincere Thank you to Migky as well.... Thank you.

I have been so lost trying to do my English family, not knowing where to find things and then computer crashed and everything lost.  But in just a few days with me posting here, I have more then I had found the first time.  Give yourselves a huge pat on the back everyone for helping someone you have never met.  I can't say anything else but Thank You ever so much.
