Armed Forces / What are the chances
« on: Monday 10 April 06 21:30 BST (UK) »
Great Uncle Joseph Beer joined the Navy during WW1 (have the picture to prove it) but he was constantly sea sick so went AWOL back to his sisters who burnt his uniform.
To avoid the military police he enlisted in the army under his brother Frank's name, The Royal Engineers, and was killed in Bagdad in 21/10/1917.
What I want to find out is how to trace his Navy records.

The Lighter Side / Making a new census for future genealogists
« on: Wednesday 05 April 06 12:49 BST (UK) »
I am one of the 4,200 census enumerators for this years Irish census, I'm wondering should I mix up all the names and addresses just to give the genealogists of the future something to really hunt for

The Common Room / French Translation

Can anyone read these articles about my dear Aunt Laura, who died almost three years ago. I only recently got my hands on them and would love to know what they say.
She was a fabulous woman who lead a rather exciting life being a night club actress in London, Paris, Belgium and Africa from the 1950s

Not sure if this has been done before,

To get the ball rolling here is:
1881
RG11/0128 75 38
29 St James's Place, St James, London
Winston (Master) Churchill, son, 6, Scholar, Woodstock, Oxford.
