Devon Lookup Requests / Re: Woolacott, S Molton. Anyhthing available

Hi, I realize that you posted your inquiry about this family some time ago, but I've only just seen it as I just happened across it by accident. The family you are making inquiries about is my family, still predominantly living in north Devon. I wondered what your interest was in us and if I may be able to help.
Please let me know.

Hi
Thanks for swift reply.

I am looking for the death of SGT Frank Tonks 5105915 he died on 28th May 1944 in Kohima.

I have seen his entry on the War Graves Commission and I have his war records but cannot find who/where his death was registered or how to get a death certificate.

I have emailed War Graves Commission but as yet had no reply.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi

I have hit a brick wall and need lots of help if you can.

I am looking for the Tonks family - those being:

Frank Tonks born 1910-1912 March (he fibbed on his war docs to enter the army!)

John Patrick Tonkshis father.

Lilly/Lillian/Lilian Tonks his mother.

Frederick Tonks his brother

and I believe one other brother. Possibly John

I know before 1936 they lived in Aston Birmingham and that when Frank married in 1936 his dad John had died (he was a commercial traveller)

I have Franks war records but the information regarding his family is little. He seemed to lie about his age to gain entry into the army and the addresses listed are not on any census records that I have found so far.  (81 Frankfort Street, Birmingham)

I would be very grateful for any info/help you can give me.

Many thanks

Hi

Can anyone tell me who registers the death of a soldier who dies in battle? Is it the Army or the Family? (In connection with world war 2)

I have emailed the war graves commission but as yet had no reply.

Many thanks in advance for your help.
