Traill, Dr Alexander Kirk

[Alcresta]

Thank you for getting  back. I will certainly try the sites you mention.. Thanks again😄😄

[Nettie]

I don't know whether you have this,but if you Google North Devon Journal 1945 Dr Alexander Traill, it will take you to a few sites with journal entries. Looks like GenesReunited is the best one but I don't subscribe there so can't check.

[Nettie]

You noted his service with The Black Watch in WWI. Have you checked out their comprehensive website which includes tracing a soldier? http://www.theblackwatch.co.uk/history-and-research/tracing-a-soldier/

[Alcresta]

Thank you Nettie. I am looking at the website you mention but not finding anything as yet. I will keep looking though as his service must be recorded somewhere. He just seems to have disappeared for the duration of the war but as a surgeon and member of the volunteer Black Watch Volunteers surely he must have been put to good use.  Thank you again 😄😄
