Bill Coles, who lost his arm was my Mother's brother. His mother was Edith Maria Ash (died 1937) and his father was Francis Coles (died 1947) of Bath, England. My mother was Mary Ann and his sister was Ivy. My Mother always told me that he lost his arm at Dieppe. I'm a Canadian born to Mary Ann Coles and Allan Murray of the Newfoundland Squadron of the RAF. My mother, Ann and Aunt Ivy died a few years after your father. My father, Allan, is still alive. Ray, you have a Canadian family that would very much like to hear from you. We are currently researching our background.

Maybe, my Father Sergeant WH Coles King's Co. 1st Batt Guards Armoured Division lost his arm in a (grenade?) attack by Fallschirmjager on his Carrier in Normandy on the 9th or 10th of August 1944 during a recce. My mother told me that he was accompanied by a Sergeant Twelvetrees from the Isles of Scilly. My Father often wondered what happened to him

Hello. I just moved to the Miami area. I am looking for a solid company to help me with a refinance. I purchased the house from a short sale and had to do business over the phone because I was living in Az. I dont think that I got a good deal. My interest rate in now 6.99 percent. I think that I can refinance and get a much better deal. Please point me in the right direction.
Please only use ENGLISH wording on the Guestbook thank you Eunice.

I was in the second battalion in 1966 almost continually until the end of my service in1980 I am better known as ALF i had a Barry Mllington in my platoon nicknamed Millie
in N. I . I have to say he was aptly named Millie I cannot say if he was the same bloke but I met him on Ashton some years later by chance and he had been medically discharged with a dodgy heart valve if these are names he ever mentions it could be one and the same ALAN HUGHES our CSM MAJOR SMITH COY COM. SGT SHARMAN Robert Lindsay Del Hearn John Munday I would very interested to know if any of this ties in with your theory regards alf

I am an ex QDG looking for anyone who can confirm that a Mr Barry Millington, ex 2nd Bn, ended his carreer as a CSM? I am asking as Mr Millington has been claiming he spent several years with 22 SAS. A claim he has now admitted was false. As he is courting a member of my family, I am attempting to see if this is another lie and prove him to be untrustworthy. Thank you for any help.

Does anyone know of a John Twelvetrees who became a Sergeant Major in the Grenadier Guards, possibly during or prior to WW2.
