Sorry. I am going to get him to buy the marriage cert as we are at a dead end already.

He failed to tell me his grandfather died abroad after he disappeared and believes he went to Australia. Which was not helpful.

Thanks for the help so far. :-)

Thanks, I will take a look at your thread.

The son Raymond is my colleagues father.

I did find that entry in the 1939 record.

Looks like George and his wife had a son named Raymond..............

ErikaH Report 25 Aug 2020 18:57

Get a copy of the marriage certificate for his declared age and his father’s name and occupation - if he knew him.

When did he die?

Try freebmd for a birth - then look for one for Raymond with same MMN

Such recent service records are NOT online. they have to be purchased at a cost of £30.00, plus a possible requirement for a copy death cert

HI All

I am doing some research for a colleague who wants to find out more about his grandfather George T Green. What we know he is was in the Army for a long time but i cant find him on Ancestry Military records. I have on Forces Website but just gives me information on what i know, no DOB or family details. His Army number is 884994 so if anyone can locate a link to these records then please do.

This is his marriage

Name: George T Green
Registration Date: Jan 1942
[Feb 1942]
[Mar 1942]
Registration Quarter: Jan-Feb-Mar
Registration district: Peterborough
Inferred County: Huntingdonshire
Spouse: Florence Ward
Volume Number: 3b
Page Number: 804

He is said to have a brother called Raymond Green.

There is supposedly a link to Winchester


We dont have much more than this to go on. But any help would be appreciated.
