Good Morning Mary and All

Hope everyone is well and enjoying unbridled research πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Yes Bertieone is always there to point me in right directions.

I was hoping you all could magic his early military records as well but not to be.

And before you sit on your laurels...........when the marriage certificate Bertieone suggested I order arrives.......you may find I’ve opened a can of worms that needs sorting πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
