(at birth of George) Information from Forces War Records sent by John TERRY 29/10/2014 First Name: William George Initials: W G Surname: WHITTLESEA DOB: Circa 1877 Age: 39 Nationality: Canadian Date of Death: 15/09/1916 Information: HUSBAND OF ALICE LEWIS WHITTLESEA, OF 153, GLOUCESTER GROVE, FAIRBANK, TORONTO, ONTARIO. Rank: Private Service Number: 413101 Campaign Medals: Victory Medal Given the information we have available it is likely that William George WHITTLESEA was entitled to the Victory medal, also called the Inter Allied Victory Medal. This medal was awarded to all who received the 1914 Star or 1914-15 Star and, with certain exceptions, to those who received the British War Medal. It was never awarded alone. These three medals were sometimes irreverently referred to as Pip, Squeak and Wilfred. Eligibility for this award consisted of having been mobilised, fighting, having served in any of the theatres of operations, or at sea, between midnight 4th/5th August, 1914, and midnight, 11th/12th November, 1918. Women who served in any of the various military organisations in a theatre of operations were also eligible. British War Medal From the information available to us, it is very possible that William George WHITTLESEA was entitled to the British War Medal for service in World War One. This British Empire campaign medal was issued for services between 5th August 1914 and 11th November 1918. The medal was automatically awarded in the event of death on active service before the completion of this period.

This is not what they are all named, it shows as WHITTLESAY, WHITTLESEA etc.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.

If you have comments, alterations, corrections, amendments etc. please follow the details to be found on the Home Page to contact me.
