I wouldn't have thought that the "expert" had access to the digitised WO97 records. |

the In the records section on the national arch, is the documents online, after putting in John under the 3 surnames these are all that are listed. |

OH Kathleen, you're so right. I did get a will out of the site some time ago, and I keep optimistically having another look at the site every now and then. Is it any easier with a actual visit to Kew? |

Kathlyn, you are certainly not a "thicko" (or if you are then so am I). I can manage to find my way around most websites but have NEVER been able to fathom out the National Archives site - in fact I have completely given up trying. |

Hmm, it may be that it was the service records from WWI, because Ancestry does has 7 WWI service records for John Mawdesley (although just 4 separate individuals, all based around Manchester) |

Soldiers who were discharged in the 1890's aren't name indexed on the National Archives Catalogue, so I don't understand where he found them! |
