TEW Posted 12 April , 2022 Share Posted 12 April , 2022 (edited) In my partially successful quest to obtain either better quality scans or original scans of transcriptions from way back on pages 1-10 ish I've found a fair few other lists on the same FMP filmstrip. Hope they've not been uploaded since February. I've checked the spreadsheet and apart from a few with same numbers but different lists (or other pages from the same list) they should all be new lists. TEW 13292, pages 1 & 2. E7240, page 4 P 85115 C897 page 3 P 114877 P 129479 & P 129535 HA 35141 H 1259 Early progress reports. P 141, P 142, P 143 Page 10 of List 24889 which is amendments to lists 20265, 20266, 20267 & 20269 Page 8 of 25209 which is amendments to 20982, 20983, 21091 & 21095 HA 6798 HC 4716 Edited 13 April , 2022 by TEW Removed lists 13507 & 14198 - Duplicates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some great stuff here - especially good to see the very early Progress Reports which helps us date the start of these to early July 1915. Regarding the index, I intend publishing an updated version after dink999 has finished his batch of HD lists, which I think may be imminent given how many he has posted already. And just to mention that of the lists you just posted there were two which, I believe, did appear on the index: 13507 which appeared as ref 4001 and 14198 which had first appeared as a transcript (ref 15) and which Bardess had subsequently found and posted the image (ref 238), though your version is a much clearer image.

TEW Posted 12 April , 2022 Share Posted 12 April , 2022 David, I'll have a double check tomorrow on the ones I uploaded today. Normally I'd delete any duplicates but if it's a better quality perhaps not. I have been tracking down better copies so I may have got muddled somewhere with new Vs replacement lists although I wasn't intending to upload the better versions. Just checked and I uploaded 13507 previously! I have page 2 of 14198 which is not the same as #15 or #238. Think I uploaded page 1 by mistake. Hopefully there's a time lag between members uploading lists and their entry into Version 2 of the spreadsheet? TEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEW Posted 12 April , 2022 Share Posted 12 April , 2022 David, Just wanted to make sure that altering page 65 by deleting one list and replacing another won't cause havoc! TEW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David, This is the last batch of full page HD lists that I have. They include an early list HD 189 which looks to be from May/June 1915 after I found information from 3458 Payne's service record (enteritis 19 May 1915) I'll post 8 partial lists that I haveon the topic that brian has created.

TEW Posted 13 April , 2022 Share Posted 13 April , 2022 A few more from me. TEW 14198, page 2. Continuation sheet from David's #15 (transcription) and #238 (image). I found this initially in another forum topic that pre-dates this one. 29140, page 2. Undated, but fits June/July 1915 25208 page 4 which is amendments to earlier lists: 20699, 20985, 20986, 20990, 20992, 20994 & 21093. No number I'm afraid. 18th Signal Coy. RE.

David26 Posted 13 April , 2022 Share Posted 13 April , 2022 @dink999, @TEW, @brianmorris547 Thank you for all these latest posts. Great stuff. There is a new version of the index ready for posting. Do you think it would be better if I were to edit the OP in the other thread with the new file (so that it is easy to find) or add to the thread in the normal way? David.

TEW Posted 13 April , 2022 Share Posted 13 April , 2022 Think I would edit the first post of the Index topic and add V2 and leave V1 in place, perhaps until V3 is needed! I gleaned some more today but with a leaving towards Mediterranean and/or HD lists, I was going to delay posting them until seeing V2, good timing.

TEW Posted 16 April , 2022 Share Posted 16 April , 2022 (edited) Apologies for starting the day with a complicated one. This one may seem to match spreadsheet #4821 & #4822 which are lists with two numbers - 25459 & C/491. However, this one is different. I've compared names and there's no crossover to #4821 & #4822. It is also marked as page 3 but is another page 3! It is dated ~ 3 weeks after #4821 & #4822 but refers back to events of ~3 weeks before #4821 & #4822 so it maybe some sort of progress list but does not say so. It further complicates things by have a third number sequence which doesn't seem to correlate to anything known as yet. It's page 3 which starts with a continuation of list 115/5861 and then starts with 115/5862 which is also IDd as (WO 25459 - C/491). It's possible the RA office created the 115/**** sequence from the WO sequence. TEW 25459 - C/491 page 3 Just found a WO363 file for 14470 Heale and his B.104-53 which gives the same details and refers to 115/5862 as a Registry Number.
