There's just a few C's on the Ancestry WW1 Pension records.
« on: Thursday 07 June 07 16:01 BST (UK) »
I just accidentally stumbled on the discovery that there are actually just a few 'C' records on the Ancestry WW1 pension database. There are supposed to be just 'A' and 'B'.

A little persuasion has discovered:

Francis Cox        
James Bishop Cook    
Edwin Cooke       
John Caul        
William Cowley       
Barrington Leonard Cull
Thomas Cain        
Patrick Carr        

It may be worth doing a search just in case.

Well spotted. They could be just a few misfiles but worth checking rather than waiting for the offical launch of C!

I hadn't thought of misfiles. Good catch! That explains why there are so few of them.
