Service record - Allan Perry b1860 d1929
« on: Wednesday 29 November 23 04:28 GMT (UK) »
Hi All,

I am looking for a detailed service record of this man and offer the following to help locate it:

Allan Perry born 17 Apr 1860 at Luton Kent to Isaac & Betsy Kains (nee Bond) Perry

He went in to the Army Medical Dept in Aug 1884 and was appointed surgeon from Jan 1885; promoted to surgeon captain in early 1892; promoted to surgeon major in 1897.

He then left the army shortly thereafter to become Principal Civil Medical Officer and Inspector-General of Hospital in Ceylon and was there for over fifteen years.  He was knighted in 1904.

He re-activated for WWI into RAMC as a major and later lieutenant colonel running the Harvard Unit at General Hospital No22 at Camiers in France, then was at the Auxiliary Hospital for Officers at Fowey Cornwall.

Any information is gratefully received.

Cheers, Colin

There is a possible on the uk.forceswarrecords.com website in their UK, Records of Officers Services, 1775-1914 data set for A Perry.

As I don't have a subscription I can't see anything else but it is the only A Perry there and the blurred out image looks to have a lot of information.  When I search it is record 35 of 49.

Can anyone look at that for me, please?
