Thanks, Wayne for your ongoing interest and participation.. It's great when others post comments - I could post every day but don't want to appear as if I am using this group as a self-promotion tool.

But ....if you have a few spare moments you might want to check out the latest GeniMates profiles http://www.genimates.blogspot.com

thought I'd better make a break in the long time no responding but have been busy of late doing Lancashire transcribing along with Norfolk at LDS  and West-States "Utah since state Hood".

All very challenging and interesting to say the least.

But I have learnt to find sites that help in cyfering the writing (scribble) that they used in those days gone buy, by doing that has made it that much easier and you don't sit and try and work it out for ages.

 

My browser problem has been fixed so they are cruising along fine.

Well that's my queue to bow out and as I always say H.A.N.D.

We have been quiet but it hasn't been quiet at Genimates http://www.genimates.blogspot.com where there have been a few more genealogists' profiles posted.

We seem to be a bit quiet of late

I thought I'd get some reaction to my posting.

I've been having an issue with my palemoon browser so I have reverted to Chrome and hear I am.

Whith ref: to Carmel & Shauna's post.

I went on a wide scale search and came up with all this:

 

Apparently he enlisted in Malaya, which made it hard to find him via aust sources.

As per here: http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/1104406?searchTerm=Alexande...=

http://www.roll-of-honour.org.uk/Escapes/html/escape_database_0.htm

then scroll to the bottom and click the Aust Awards Tribunal if you want to read all about it.

http://www.roll-of-honour.org.uk/Cemeteries/Thanbyuzayat_War_Cemetery/

then click “roll of honor” -  then click “b” – then “be” – then scroll down to the Australian section.

And he is here:

if you feel you want to watch this very moving video then click the address, be rest assured you will have a very large lump in your throat after watching it,this is from the book written by Richard Kandler in march 2010. that link is here:

I did add a comment that it probably be located in thier own papers but not sure if they read the comments. Will need to go through the 1970's newspaper to see if the death can be found.

Shauna I have located his parents, his father died a couple of years after he did and his mother in 1970 in Ballarat, it could just take finding the death notice in the courier and have posted this as such.
