You are one of the lucky ones as his service record survived the bombing/fire/water in WW11 ancestry has his records.
It lists his brothers and sisters and there are letters from the MoD regarding his belongings. I didn't look further than that.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: DNA relationship prediction tools: theory and reality.

Thank you for taking the time to create this chart TreeDigger. I am absolutely bewildered by anything to do with DNA research so your chart joins other tools which I keep promising myself I will sit down and study in depth. Who knows one of these days the penny will drop and my illegitimate great grandfather's father will be revealed.

World War One / Re: Are actual WW1 Service/Pension Records available on Ancestry.co.uk?
« on: Friday 02 February 24 19:22 GMT (UK)  »
60% plus of WW1 service records were destroyed by bombing/fire/water in WW11 so it is a very lucky person who finds their ancestors.

Could this be him? ancestry doesn't give any results for me until I leave out his middle name.
This image is very blurry and I can't make out his profession.

I knew as soon as I posted the question I would work out where to find it...

In the 'DNA Origins' section, it's listed there.

Resume normal programming ;)

If I resume my normal programming we are really in trouble!  ::)
