Don't see a Frederick Ellwood 19477 I was just going to look at the first page to see if it would help you). But then I also haven't found my uncle who I know was wounded, nor my grandfather who was not wounded. Don't forget these records are INCOMPLETE! So many WW1 reocrds were destroyed during WW2.

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.

Hi Gillian It's a long job to do a look up on the pensions. Sometimes they are 10/15 pages long. You have to download each page seperately Linda
