Infantry
Country: Australia
My family is searchig for the First World wAr Medals of Esson Thomas James RULE. The First World War Embarkation Roll indicates he left Port Adelaide aboard HMAT Ascanius (A11) on 20 October, 1914 as a member of the 12 Infantry Battalion, AIF (Australian Imperial Force). He served on Gallipoli and was later promoted to the rank of Lieutenant. He was serving with the 50th Battalion when he was killed in action on the 2nd April, 1917 around Noreuil in France. An Auntie of mine (his niece) was in possession of the medals for many years. It is our family belief, that she donated or loaned for safe keeping, the medals, to some organisation in Adelaide. I have been in contact with Legacy Adelaide, and the RSL South Australia and also the Keswick Museum, all to no avail. Of course, we would dearly love to have these medals returned to our family. However if they are in the hands of a private collector, we would be most grateful simply to know that they are safe. Hopefully somebody out there can assist us. Yours gratefully. Andrew RULE.

F.S.MARSHALL
Medal Type: WW1 - BWM + Vic + Territorial War Medal
Service No: 240077
Corps/Service:
Infantry
Country: United Kingdom
I am searching for the First World War medals of F.S.MARSHALL who served as a 2nd Lieutenant with the East Surrey Regiment during the Great War. He served in Mesopotamia and I think that as he was a Territorial, he was not awarded the 1914-1915 Star. However he did serve overseas, so I cannot be 100% sure on that? If anybody has any information as to the whereabouts of these missing medals to Second Lieutenant F.S. Marshall of the East Surrey Regiment, I would very much appreciate your assistance.
