I hope i am at the right place to start this thread if not Moderator move it at the right place thanks I acquired a month ago a small grouping for a Canadian soldier Name Elmer Eadie. Since then i have tried to find out a little bit more about him without success . The only info i have it's his name Elmer Eadie and that he was conscripted in Newmarket in 1941 That's about it . I was reading on this forum some link to go for info on soldier services ect but once you read what they want ( family ,ex- vet only ) for people like me who just want to know a little bit more on one soldier can't find anything . Can anyone tell me where to go to obtain those info especially somebody who are not related to the soldier. Thanks Frenchy
Hi Frenchy, I do not know alot about the Canadian system however someone else on the forum may be switched on to how to go about it! I googled an L. Elmer Eadie who was a Captain in the RCOC REME but that is about it. Cheers Geoff
He must have come home from the war Frenchy these are the only Eadies WW2 on the Canadian WW2 database I could find ! Eadie C J Clifford John Apr 16, 1945 Eadie J A John Alexander Jul 23, 1943 Eadie J J Jack John Sep 19, 1941 But you might try this site .... I didn't check it ... but it might yield something ! !
