Hi Scott,
Not sure if your Ferderick is the one I am looking for. Was your cousin married to Louie and had a son Frederick Edgar Wilce?

Cornwall / Looking for descendents of Frederick WILCE.
« on: Tuesday 31 August 10 21:31 BST (UK)  »
I have a medal awarded to Frederick Wilce, born 1866 in Falmouth. It was awarded for long service and good conduct on the HMS Empress of India. Not sure of the date but it has a bust of young Victoria on the back.

Does anyone know if it is possible to trace any descendents of him whom I could pass this medal onto as i'm sure it would be of interest to them.

The only other writting on the medal is "P.O 2nd CL"

Any help would be gratefully recieved.

Somerset / Re: Ilchester Gaol Records

Hi John,

Unfortunatly I was unsucessful in my search for the records of Ilchester gaol.

I wasn't able to get to the Somerset Records office so it might be worth a try.

World War Two / 61st reconnaissance regiment.
« on: Saturday 31 January 09 13:40 GMT (UK)  »
Hello,
My grandad, Cecil George Huzzey, was in the 61st reconnaissance regiment during ww2. This regiment was part of the 50TH (TT) NORTHUMBRIAN DIVISION which landed on Gold Beach on D Day.

I wonder if anyone knows where I could find out which Squadron he was in within the 61st reconnaissance regiment? His Captain was Captain Herbert Snook who was killed in action in early 1945.

Many Thanks for your time,

Paul. Bristol
