Dear Mike, I've struggled a while and here you are in no time at all finding my answer. I am most appreciative. Dorothy (Wife) will be pleased. She was 19 years old when G/father died and we had just met. She is much older now! Thank you so much. John

John,

These are his two roll page entries. The QSA on WO100/186p336.




And supplementary roll on WO100/168p379.



Best wishes
