Hi, i have found the Short Service Army Form for Albert Edward Neale it doesnt say next of kin or where he was born, is there anywhere that would have this info? He was born in 1892 and he died in 1927 in Barmouth Merioneth. I have sent off for 3 birth certs, but understand on the original there was no Fathers name, the three i have have Fathers names.
Any ideas???
Thanks
Sally

Have you looked at further pages on Albert on those war records of service. He worked for Payne and sons at the Dorothy Cafe Llandudno. He worked for them for two years and they are giving him a reference.

Sally

Sally Report 27 Nov 2008 17:08

Hi Alan i must say i wonder if the age is incorrect, on his death cert he was 35, wonder if he gained and then lost a few years????
Many thanks for info - maybe the wedding could be back on !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had'nt realised myself untill I just had a look at the next pages. Thats quite a bit of info and what treasures to have. You have his actual signature on those papers too. He was a very tidy writer.
