Richard Edward Swarbrick
Chauffeur
Motor Department, Boulogne
Passport No. 10586

Boulogne is given as his destination on leaving the UK, so possible he moved later on. He appears in the main part of the book which is for those still serving in 1918.

Unfortunately Lilian Stewart doesn't have an entry in the BRCS Register of Overseas Volunteers, though I see she does have a medal index card.  Maybe the BRCS Archives will have more details on her.

Sue,
      Thanks for your time. I am trying to determine if the lady on the medal card was my aunt.

A relative of mine, Harry V. Morton (b. 1875), served during WWI with the British Red Cross and St. John of Jerusalem.  I have found a medal card for him, but that doesn't indicate whether he served at home or abroad.  He received the British War Medal and the Victory Medal.  No Regiment number is given.  Can anyone enlighten me?

I believe that Harry Valentine Morton was married to my grandfather's sister, Margaret Innes. I would be grateful for any information that you could share about them.

Hello I am after further information regarding John Kennedy,  he served in France from 6 Nov 1914 to 3 Feb 1915 as an orderly with the BRCS.  I would appreciate any help.
