London Gazette
« on: Friday 23 July 21 15:19 BST (UK) »
I have some information that Cecil Hubert Blankley was granted a commission on 26.9.1916 as 2nd Lt into the Leicestershire Regiment.  I've searched the London Gazette using a date range between 1.1.1914-1.1.1922 just for the name Blankley, but he doesn't appear in the search results

https://www.thegazette.co.uk/all-notices/notice?text=blankley&categorycode-all=all&noticetypes=&location-postcode-1=&location-distance-1=1&location-local-authority-1=&numberOfLocationSearches=1&start-publish-date=01%2F01%2F1914&end-publish-date=01%2F01%2F1922&edition=&london-issue=&edinburgh-issue=&belfast-issue=&sort-by=latest-date&results-page-size=10&results-page=1

Can anyone else find him, please, or suggest where I might be going wrong?  :)
