Once again, thank you, and yes, it did have a date after it. The rest of it I can understand, I think!
Regards.

Many thanks.  Things are making more sense. The man was later transferred to the RA.
I do have another query. At one point the authorisation for transfer states:
WOUM 112/MISC/4368(MP3)

Does anyone have any clue as to what that means?
Thank you.

World War Two / Royal Artillery abbreviation help needed please

I am looking at a service record for a relative in WW2. It states that he enlisted in April 1944 and in May was posted to 9 P.T.C. in Glasgow. Is anyone able to tell me what this refers to please? I can make out most of the rest.
Thank you,
Lesley

Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Cant find burial sites for William and Sarah Lamb in Hastings
« on: Saturday 28 November 15 10:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi there,

I have had a quick look for you and discovered a William Lamb aged 75, buried 07.01.1892, and a Sarah Lamb aged 88, buried 17.06.1911, both in Hastings Cemetery, The Ridge, Hastings.

Hope this is of some help. If you contact the cemetery they may be able to help further.
Regards,
Lesley

The Common Room / Re: Missing death record Abraham GILLOT

I have just looked at another record from Gibraltar prison, register of prisoners which states that Abraham died in hospital on 19.09.1860.

It appears that Abraham was one of 100 prisoners embarked on the 'Mermaid' on 25th June 1856 for 'public works in Gibraltar'. FindMyPast is playing up a bit at present so haven't been able to look at the actual records of all his entries, though there does appear to be one of him actually in Gibraltar aboard the 'Europa'.

Hope that helps

Europe / Re: Belch, Holland

Hi,

There is a small village called Belt-Schutsloot, which was originally in two parts, one being Belt. It is near a town called Zwartsluis. Maybe a possibility....
