KathleenBell!
thanks for the suggestion ...i have all of Frederick's Service Records that are available was not able to find any at all regarding WW1 .... so believed he had either died or Migrated to Canada, USA or Aust where i am....but cannot find him on records here. I have been searching for some years now on & off!
Thankyou for helping me out...

ArgyllGran!
many thanks for replying chasing up my requests...sorry did not reply sooner
i'm in Sth Australia time was getting late..
The Death for my Frederick Gurney is close but i doubt he had moved to Coventry as from what i know of the family they all lived within Kent unless perhaps shows his Birthdate on the 39' Reg as being 9th Jan 1889 living in Coventry....then i'd send of for a B.C.
Thanks for chasing my request!
Poppycat!

Although his service records are on Findmypast, if you send off for them from the MOD if he re-enlisted at a later date you should get ALL of his service history from them. However if he didn't re-enlist then you would just be wasting £30 as Findmypast gives all of his early service up to 1912.

Had already done so, as you will see, but left the info to show anyone else trying to help that it's the wrong person.
What about the Coventry death found and posted by AG?.
