    2. Blair Southerden
    3. Nancy As your grandfather was reasonably senior, the RAMC Museum may have some information about him. The will not have his service record but its probable that information may be held in any histories which proliferated after the Great War. The museum is at Ash Vale, Aldershot and their web site is at http://www.ams-museum.org.uk/museum/contact-us/ They may make a charge for researching their records but an email to the Curator should elicit the situation. It may also be possible to find Earl Haigh's despatch, TNA at Kew would be the starting point. Good hunting. Blair

    3. We had a very productive visit with the Army Medical Services Museum in Aldershot. They did have EG Ffrench's service record in a large sized register of RAMC Officers Service and an obituary from the RAMC News magazine. The curator, Derek Marrison, is extremly helpful & knowledgeable Thanks for the suggestion We found Haigh's WW1list of MIDs but no individual citation so far Rgds Nancy Ffrench Atkinson ----- Original Message ----- From: Blair Southerden To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 3:30 PM Subject: Mentioned in Dispatches Nancy As your grandfather was reasonably senior, the RAMC Museum may have some information about him.
