Hello Alan and Sandy,
Sandy, you seem to have worked out where it's leading while I've been away. 
I was thinking along the lines of why Arthur Warrilow was in Group 77.
That may not have been answered yet, but there's certainly a story there.
Well done Sandy. 
Phil

Well done Phil
Bless him.
At least if anyone wished to trace him we have given them a head start.

SDGW has a bit more, but is also confusing.
Born: St Sepulchre, Northants
Enlisted: Northampton
Killed in Action; 20/5/18; France and Flanders
Formerly 290396 Hants Cyelo Battalion. [Possibly 1/9 (Cyclist) Bn, but I can't see how it fits]

Morning Phil
Was helping friend with Scottish History yesterday and my mind
was boggling by the time I got home. 
Made the Link to Ireland though so was well chuffed.
Anyway it seems through the original documents that what he
said when he enlisted was not quite true, but then we know that
don't we through other men.
Looks like we have a bit more digging to do.
Not today though so over to the rest of you on the thread.
Sandy

Hello Steve,
That looks more likely, especially as the 9th West Yorks absorbed the 1/1st Yorkshire Hussars towards the end of 1917, according to LLT.
Both of his numbers look like TF.

I've since found another half a dozen drafted in from the Hunts Cyclists to the West Yorks, all with 325*** numbers. It looks like they transferred early 1918.

Hi Phil
As Anc********* have not got that far are there any records for him on TNA.
I still can not work that site out (TNA).

Hello Sandy,
If any of his service record survives, it will be in the so-called Burnt Documents, WO 363, which is only available on microfilm at TNA itself.
It is not possible to search a name individually on the Catalogue to see if the record survived.
Otherwise, it's if and when A**y decide to release it.

Thanks for the reply Phil
I knew you would know the answer.
Looks as though the 77 still remains un-solved then.

Morning Phil
Whilst at Bedford Library yesterday afternoon I looked up the death
of the above Albert/Arthur and found it noted as below.
Warrilow Albert, Pte. 325216, W.Y.R. ,1918, Vol I.38, Page 296.
I also took images of all marriages behind the lines 1914-1926.
Be awhile before I get round to indexing them though.
Sandy
