WW1
James Hodgkinson DOB 1881 - Sapper Royal Engineers - 1918
I don't have this man in my files, either as Hodgk or Hodk
Can I access WW2 records via the library or perhaps you could suggest another avenue?
WW2
James Hodgkinson DOB 1918 - Japanese POW after 1942
Alec Whittaker - Sapper - 711 Company - Iceland Force - 1922859
Lt Corporal Joseph Baxter - KIA - Appears on a memorial at Le Touret
James Baxter - Royal Horse Artillery - Served in India
We have a few more from WW2 but we don't want to take on too much at once.
Your help is much appreciated.

You have now moved into an area which I don't cover, my interest is WW1, however I do know that WW2 records are available, but only to direct blood kin, ie children or grandchildren. Sorry but I no longer have the address of the place where those records are held. Try ringing Fulwood, the curator should know.
