priv Posted 4 August , 2004 Share Posted 4 August , 2004 Pals, I wonder if someone could check SDGW to see if the following person is listed and let me know: 5120 William Robert Beazley 4th Hussars or Bucks Yeomanry MIC says discharged on 8th Sept 1915, but there is a Plaque named to him. CWGC shows no William Robert Beazley. Can anyone help as I want to sort this little mystery out. Thanks James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Denham Posted 4 August , 2004 Share Posted 4 August , 2004 If he died after 31.08.21 he would not qualify for CWGC commemoration but might still have a death plaque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

priv Posted 4 August , 2004 Author Share Posted 4 August , 2004 Pals, Most interesting ........ take a look on Ebay at item 2260204166 and let me know your comments/thoughts. There are a few inconsistencies like he went out to F&F almost a month after the rest of his Regiment, MIC shows same number of 4th Hussars as for the Bucks Yeo - is this usual ? Is it possible that he may have died and the family decided to commission their own plaque ? Research on PRO show 3 MIC's to William Robert Beazley: 1) WH Beazley No 5120 as per MIC shown on Ebay, note sribble about initial should be R, service with 4th Hussars and Bucks Yeo 2) William Robert Beazley No 5120 - Bucks Yeo - may be the other half, could show SWB ? AND BIZARRELY a 3rd William Robert Beazley of the 10th Royal Canadian Regiment, what is extraordinary is that it show his Number as being 5120 also. N.B. I haven's downloaded the images and am purely working on the Index on the PRo search site - wasn't going to spend £ 7.00 on that lot ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
