Hi Chris,
Many thanks for Ur site
I have been doing in-depth Researching & Analysing for some years now on everything WW1 including my
4 WW1 Weeks Brothers ( including my Grandfather & 2 of his Cousins KIA; & Maternal Grandfather MM )&
4 WW2 Weeks Brothers ( including my Father )
& have not been able to get a copies of my Grandfather & 2nd Brothers Attestation Papers (previously available at Melbourne Archives Centre, Casselden Place, 2 Lonsdale St, Melbourne V Box 8005, Burwood Heights Vic 3151 refvic@naa.gov.sau ) for their PMF (Permanent Military Force ) PRIOR their WW1 ( AIF involvement also) as follows :-
PMF No 34 Francis James Weeks
&
PMF No 79 Leslie Horace Weeks
Also, did a Google Search " Victoria Barracks ( Sydney ) Base Records 1915 " which pointed me to Ur Site as :-
Office i/c Base Records, Victoria Barracks ( Paddington ) SYDNEY?
Vs
Base Records, Victoria Barracks, MELBOURNE?
Is it possible through recorded & unrecorded history that they are both correct ??
Cheers
Many thanks
Jeff M. Weeks

This is just fabulous - my gradfather embarked on the HMAT Nestor from Sydney on 9 April 1916 with the 17th Batallion so it sounds like EC Perkins and my grandfather were on the same ship. Such easy access to clear and concise information. His daughter (my mother) is still alive and although she never knew her father very well (he came back from the war with shell shock we think) she will be so happy when I read her this story. Thank You. Mary
