Thomas Murray
British Army Pioneer Corps
I am searching for a Thomas Murray who was in the Pioneer Corps. My mother
has told me that he was on the Lancastria when it was hit by German aircraft on
the 17th July 1940 . To bring my records up to date it would be nice to put
his army number and rank next to his name on my family tree. We have tried
other avenues to get this information but have drawn a blank. We know he was
born on the 1st July 1900 which would have made him 40 years old. although my
Grandmother was told that he was missing he later turned up alive and well and
lived until 1969. Any information received would be gratefully appreciated as I am currently researching my family history.
