67th Divisional Ammunition Column, Tom Franks
« on: Saturday 15 July 17 14:40 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Last weekend a cousin and I met for the first time to discuss the Franks family of Warwick & Birmingham.

During our discussion, amongst my research notes was my cousin's grandfather Tom Franks who was born in 1884.  The notes state he served with the 67th Divisional Ammunition Column, no. 249212 and he was ranked as a Gunner.

Over the last week I've been trying to find where I uncovered this information , but can't find it anywhere and I was hoping someone might be able to see if they can find this on Tom Franks.

Hope someone can help.

Stuart

To answer my own question yes it was.
Can't see a medal card for him though.
Edit: they were home counties so never went overseas.
His 6 digit number indicates pre war TF.

Thank you Jim.  That rings a bell now with the Voters List.  I will have to see if I saved the page.
