World War Two / No ATS record
« on: Friday 13 October 17 12:01 BST (UK)  »
Back in September I applied for my grandmother's ATS service history.

I received a reply this morning from the MOD stating no record could be found.  Shame really.  Would've been nice to get some more knowledge on her time with ATS.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Occupation on the 1939 Register
« on: Sunday 17 September 17 16:23 BST (UK)  »
I have an occupation on the 1939 register of one my relations.  It looks to me as though it reads Ricemering.  I've conducted a search for this word or old occupation but can't find anything.

Any ideas?

Worcestershire / Worcestershire Police Archives
« on: Wednesday 23 August 17 09:11 BST (UK)  »
Recently I revisited my research into my great grandmother's brother, Eli Sparry who was a Police Sergeant in Worcester & Birmingham.

I obtained his service history from Birmingham about a year ago.  But last week I uncovered a website for the Worcestershire Police:

http://www.worcestershirepolicehistory.co.uk

And from this I was to able to obtain further information & a photograph of Eli.

So thought I would share the link for those who may have ancestors who served in Worcestershire Police.

Family History Beginners Board / Wills
« on: Saturday 05 August 17 14:31 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I've located an entry for one of my ancestors George Franks who died in 1939 via the Probate Search website.  It states that his probate was granted in Birmingham in Sept 39 and the money left to his brother & sister.

I made a visit to the library yesterday in search of his will but the book for August - September 39 was incomplete .

I just wanted to check does the wording Probate actually mean he left a will?  If it does I can send for a copy online.

Many thanks.

My grandmother served in the ATS during WW2 and I wondered did the women have service records like the men did?
