To take your mind off the off license could you have a look if you can make sense of  Gerald Barasler I've no number or Bn, but he was apparently from Stalybridge 
and was in hospital in Germany in May 1917. He was captured at Valenciennes.
Thanks

Charlie,
A few thoughts-
9946 Frederick Jackson was in 2nd Bttn.  1914 Star Roll shows he disembarked 15/8/1914.
Philip Morris had 9467 number.
Charles William Robertson was captured 10-11/7/1916 on Officer PoWs
Henry Waller was captured 23/4/1917, former employee of Blakely & Beving Limited, wounded in the right arm and transferred to Langanzelsa on 2nd June 1917, followed by Darmstadt from 14th or 20th June.  He then arrived in Giessen in August 1917, finally staying in Hameln in November 1917.  Following his return to England he was Discharged fit on 28/3/1919.  Henry was born in Barnsley on 8th September 1887 and his mother�s address is identified as 602 Stretford Road, Old Trafford.
Arthur Watts will have been captured on 9th not 19th July 1916 - IRRC error.

Thanks Mack and Tim.
There are also well over 100 Smiths. I hope they have separated those spelled with 1 F and those with 2

hiya Charlie don't know if you have already got this,the Edwards list stops before they get to the manchesters,but if you use the surname edwardson and then scroll up,the rest of the list appears,this sites bloody mad at times[47 names]

Mack, it happened to me as well but it is easily sorted.

At the top of the index on the left hand side is a white cell, this has a dropdown menu, open the menu and you will be able to see a list, the section you are using is indicated by a "tick" To move forward simply click on the next section.

Charlie, searching for the service number and Manchester Regiment on the National Archives MICs I found:

Private 32923 Richard Blomley is correct

Walter Blogyn should be Private 35563 Walker Brown

Hope this helps
Pete

[charlie]

Thanks Pete, not much chance if someone was searching for Pte Brown
