I think James Arthur and John were the same person, the wounds, Bn, camps etc were too similar.

296 William Blackburn, is it possible that it was 5672 William Blackburne,
298 H Bland could this be 4498 & 276693 Hubert W Bland?

hiya charlie

William blackburne transferred to the RGA and theres only MIC for Hubert bland

i'me fairly sure that james+john Appleton are the same man,there were only two appletons with the 2nd battalion in 1914,the other one was George,he was james brother,he was killed in the September.

83.alfred asquith,he was with the loyal north lancs when he was captured

Thanks Mack
I've found William Brady now, the Manchesters have been filed under MGC again. I must remember to keep checking there if there are no Manchesters listed.
I'll delete Bland and Blackburn.

Hi Charlie,
Not sure if it's my laptop, but think the latest Excel database file has gone wrong.

ps Thanks Pete.  I think it's the mobile net connection at mother-in-law's house.  Spreadsheet is fine with Broadband.

Hi Tim, I just checked and the POW database is working fine so probably your laptop . If you need me to send you a copy please pm me with your email address.
