Based on an old photograph, my great uncle Arthur Stump Lewis served in either the Royal Flying Corps or Royal Air Force during World War I (1914-1918). But despite paying a researcher to check various sources at National Archives, I am no closer finding out anything about his military service and the researcher has come back without any findings.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,
Does anyone know anything about John Lampard, who was a clock and watchmaker. He lived in Mere, Wiltshire in the 1830's but moved to Bruton, Somerset and then Raglan Place, Bristol to continue his work. He died in 1882. I think his son continued to be a clock and watchmaker. I would be grateful for any information, etc.
Thanks

How do i go about getting a transcript of the inquest, the death cert gives the name of the coroner and the county plus the date of the inquest would this plus the deceased's name be sufficient to obtain the transcript. thanks jim stansfield
