Lt. Arthur Law Marshall R.E. Inland Waterways and Docks.
« on: Tuesday 04 October 16 08:51 BST (UK) »
Sometime ago I was asking for info on the above officer who served in Mesopatamia with the Royal Engineers, the gist of the story was that I had rescued a photo album of his (not complete) time in Mesopotamia in ww1.

Unable to find a direct descendant to hand over the album to I said I would offer it anyone who had an interest, some time later I was asked by a person if I still had it and said I had posted onto someone who had expressed an intetest, this turned out to be another "senior moment" as I have refound the album in amongst some of my papers, if that person can contact me again I am willing to post it if they still want it.

I am not the original person who contacted you regarding the album of Arthur Law Marshall, RE, but I have a great interest in him.  I have his medals from World War I and would very much like to have a photograph or photographs of him.  I know that you may have promised the album to someone else, and that is fine.  If that person no longer wants it, I would love to have it.  Failing that, I would love to get copies of some photos of him that may be in the album.

Regards,

Lt. Col. (Ret'd) Edward De Santis, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers

Search engines find entries on Rootschat very easily with results appearing near the top of the first page. If you were to post a number of the photographs on this forum you will be ensuring the maximum number of people will see them in the future. You need to put the subject's name in the title you give each image. And each title has to be unique.

James,

I am new to RootsChat.  What is a pm?

When you say three posts on this site do you mean posts regarding Marshall?  Sorry that I am being so ignorant in this regard.  I hate to take up your time having you explain things to me.

I can post some details regarding my research to date on Lieutenant Marshall.  Will that suffice?

Regards,

Ed

PM is a personal message that only the sender and receiver can read, post any thing you like regarding Lt A Marshall.
I am intrigued as to why you are researching an WW1 Royal Engineer Officer from Sunderland in what was County Durham, England,

I am ex military, Scots Guards.

Regards

James,

I have his Great War medals (British War Medal and Victory Medal) as well as his Special Constabulary (GVIR) Long Service Medal.  I always try to research in depth the lives and military service of the men whose medals I have, that is why I am so interested in getting photos of him.

I realize that you may have found his next of kin and that you may have sent them the photo album.  If not I would like to get a photo of him from you, if you would be so kind, or if you no longer have the album, perhaps you could ask the people you sent it to to contact me.

I am retired from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (1960-1980) and saw active service in Vietnam, 1970-1971.  I also am a member of the Institution of Royal Engineers.

My web site at www.reubique.com may interest you.

Regards,

Ed
