Is there anywhere that lists reserve soldiers please?
From the 1939 register I have Frederick A NEAL disabled soldier nat reserve (London 32573 Woolwich).
I know he had an industrial accident that left him severely disabled and unable to work, and that was some time before the war, but I haven't found any newspaper articles about it. He worked for Western Electrical Co in North Woolwich as a cable worker in the 1921 census. This was before his accident.
He was living in Plumstead (31 St James Place), then bought a house with his compensation. 38 Sycamore Ave, Chislehurst and Sidcup, in the 1939 register.
Born Jan 1881 in Woolwich and died 1965.
I wonder if the any listing of those reserve soldiers would shed more light on his situation? I don't know if 32573 is his number or that of the reserve he was attached to.
