John Idle 1883 Application to Field Force
« on: Thursday 28 February 19 14:30 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Can anyone take a look at this chaps application and let me know when he arrived in New Zealand and any reasons he states for joining Force? 

The archive details are as follows:

R24450239   ACIS   17627      P1   176 /      1883/1393      

I know there is a facility to order documents but the min is 50 dollars which may or may not be worth it.  ??? ??? ???  Incidentally, he's my great uncle. After this entry in Archives, there are numerous convictions and prison sentences.
On that subject, if any one could look in the remaining "mug shot catalogue" held at Wellington, the reference is : Photographs of Prisoners (R17928047). This covers years 1902-1906. I know our John was photographed in Dunedin in Oct 1901 so there is a chance he could appear.

Many Thanks.

Hi,

I have asked for the Moderator to move this to the Main Board, at the moment it is tucked away in the Resources and Offers Board.

Have also put the correct link up for the Looker Upper to pre-order the file you have requested.

Hi Spades,

Is there any chance you could look in that photo album R17928047 ?  John Idle was still on the run in 1902 so his photo may be be inside as a wanted felon.

Regards Graysj.

Sorry, yes, of course. I forgot to tell you I’d go back and find it.
