Hi , I think you have exactly solved it ......I didn`t find the Supplement to the LG and that shows that he was definitely MC and he would have been on 1/2 pay because he was in Roehampton. But I can`t find a JW Frost on the MC citations anywhere ? So do we think the LG made the mistake ? showing Albert John MC ? And I agree he is an entirely different man .......but did our get the MC ? life is hard . soften it with a cat \\\=^..^=/// ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nivard Ovington" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:51 AM Subject: Re: [NFK] JOHN W FROST > Hi again > > Does the extract I gave you predate the one you found for Albert ? > > ie is it another man entirely > > Supplement to the London Gazette 17th January 1919 (p)873 > > North'n R - 2nd Lt.
