    Default Anyone Visiting Kew in the Near Future

    Hi,



    Would love to go to Kew as I am getting nowhere online and they Kew can't/won't search from me although I have given them all the info the need. Problem is I can't possibly get to Kew which is over 200 miles away, whilst working full time too !! Boo Hoo !!



    Just wondered if anyone was going if I gave you all info if you could possibly look something up for me ??



    Many thanks Annie x

    Thanks Shan



    I will do but no luck so far, so looks like its Kew or nothing !! But here goes.



    Looking for Service Records for Private Hugh Wilson Travers WW1 We have his Medal Card/Roll Number (RASC/101B251 - 25828) but we have no Service details which could be within the Burnt/Unburnt records !!



    Regiment Army Service Corps, Number A/306259

    Given British War Medal and Victory Medal. Also awarded SWB ( Silver War Badge) which we believe was given to guys who were invalided out etc !!



    We are really looking for any info regarding when he enlisted when he was discharged, Next of kin, address details, where he enlisted, why invalided although we think this was due to head wound, where/when served etc.



    Also his medals we returned we think in 1943 but have no idea why or who too and where they might be now



    If anyone can help, or could check Kew I would be very very grateful

    Hi Annie

    I could try but as you know the records may not be there & I have previously found it really difficult to search in the National Archives!

    I have promised a few other look-ups etc (I am well behind on my commitments!) which I need to do first but I shall be going soon-ish - & I will see if I can find anything

    Gillian,

    If you could that would be fantastic, yeah I know things aren't always there especially Army Records with the damage of WW2 etc. I believe that his Medal Roll is deffo there and if you could check that out to see if it holds anymore info at all, and his Service Records if they are there.

    Let me know if you need anymore info from me.

    Many many thanks Gillian !!
