I have been searching for any records of a Reginald CLEMSON for a long time now to no avail. I know he is (was?) my grandfather (my mother's father). He and my grandmother never married and therefore I cannot access his military records. I also can find no record of his birth, death, or anything else. The closest I have come is an entry at ancestry.com which list a Reginald Clemson being born to an Arthur Clemson and Doris Wyke. There is no info. except his name. I have searched on this info. as well and had no luck. I was hoping someone would take pity on me and give me a hand. I am in the US so that adds to my frustrations. Here is the info. I have: REGINALD CLEMSON Born: between 1915-1920 Member of the King's Shropshire Light Infantry (already tried the museums and office) during WWII military # 4034555 Was a military band leader who played at King's Hall in Herne Bay during the 1940-41 holiday season (tried that too, no records there) Was told by my grandmother (who doesn't remember much) that he was from the Birmingham area (staffordshire/shropshire) Lived in Kent for a while Don't know if he is still living or dead Tried professional services from Birmingham Library and was pretty much ignored and never charged for service (didn't get any info. either, they didn't seem to interested in helping). Well, that's my story, thanks so much in advance to anyone who tries to give me a lead in the right direction as to what to do next. Laura
