1939 Register
Don't know if anyone has seen this announcement but FindmyPast and the National Archives are working together to release the above Register in the next two years. It is a record of personal information for every individual eligible to receive an identity card and ration book. It was taken by the Government at the outbreak of WW2.

I spotted the announcement yesterday on the FMP website. Excellent news, I didn't even know it existed.
We might also see the Red Cross records for WW1 online this year as well. |

Crew Lists
I was looking on the 1939 register for one of my relatives and discovered that he was on board the Clifton Hall in Amble Harbour. A further look showed all the company boats there and the dredger, so we have the crews of the dredger, the Hauxley, the Bondicar, the Togston, the Chevington, the Amble, plus their normal residences. The Register also lists the internment camp although a lot of the names have been redacted.
What a surprise! |

Pity they cut off most of the second page in their photos of the 1939 register. They had a superb record of the 1939 civil defence volunteers right under their camera and the chose to chop most of it off. Might be plenty of PhDs at the National Archives and the Genealogy companies but they are still generally stupid.
[to be fair there is generally just enough text showing to know or guess the entry] |

Trying to sort this 1939 register out. Not sure if there is a way to browse methodically completely through a town/village.
I was going to just put the links in my browser but I know others might have an interest in this for future reference So... findmypast have the the pages in browsable blocks.. blocks of .. 15/20 pages? we will find out. Searching 'Amble UD' + 'Northumberland' has allegedly 3,695 results sounds about right?? I just hope the links don't die or anything.

I'll stop adding those now for a bit of testing because I think the links will fail, not sure how their search results work but the URLs all look the same to me.
This is my original search: http://search.findmypast.co.uk/resul...rland&_page=26 It is possible that search link might survive and the links will be in sequence (just as the above numbered links) down the page, taking you into each browsable block. Hard to explain but I know what I'm talking about anyway. |

Amble's own Concentration Camp. If this was for enemy aliens I do hope they didn't chuck Bosun Poggi in there. |

Hi, Just seen your message about my great great grandad Oreste Poggi; I can confirm he wasn't send to a concentration camp and was a British citizen at the time

I'm really glad to hear it! He probably sailed the colliers with my grandfather and great grandfather on occasions.

I am interested to know that you have the record for the Ships of the Harbour. I am interested as my father George William Bailes was the engineer on the dredger and he does not appear with the rest of his family on the register. Can you point me to the record. Thanks , Bob Bailes rkbailes@talktalk.net
