Robert Ruthersford sonf of John and Margaret Stirling. Robert, SECT. W/O. A. G. reported missing in middle east 22nd March 1943. Aged 35 years.
We have followed Robert and his wife Isabella for a few generations but without accessing the Palestine Police Force Nominal Roll, it’s a guessing game.
I'm unsure as to what you mean by
"it’s a guessing game" but what I am sure of is, it seems we have been been misinformed on this thread?
We seem to have gone from not knowing the name i.e. forename & surname to
"We have followed Robert and his wife Isabella for a few generations".
Some of us have spent a lot of valuable time on this request only to discover some/most/all of our work was already known?
It would be much appreciated if either Mairi or Smith.hx could let us know if any of our research was of any help?
