Subject: [WW1] Whereabouts of records? Dorsetshire Regiment
Date: Sat, 4 Nov 2000 20:47:34 -0000

Hello,
Please can anyone help me with the location of records for my husband's
Grandfather - Frederick Thomas Blake, Pte.3/8019. It has been suggested
that, due to his low number, he was in the Reserve prior to the war. The
Dorset Regimental Museum does not hold the Militia / Special Reserve
Records. Frederick survived the War and went to the "Z" Reserve on
16.3.1919. There are no papers at PRO - as he was in the Reserve and went
back to the Reserve after the War, does this mean that they were included in
the burnt papers or are they still at MOD.
Many thanks in advance
