This is my final blog post, the National Cataloguing Grant has come to an end and so must the Second World War Cataloguing project. Or at least my part in it. Thanks to the enthusiasm of our volunteers, they will continue to keep numbering and indexing away at the personnel cards, so the amount of information available at the click of a mouse will keep increasing.
And with that, I can announce the release of the next batch of index cards. The Warden Service at C TYR/1 are now searchable up to surnames starting with C. The Control and Report Centre at C TYR/2 searchable up to surnames starting with K. The Cyclist Messenger Corps at C TYR/3 searchable up to surnames starting with L. The Rescue Service at C TYR/9 searchable up to surnames starting with S.
We have also released some registers, which are not indexed, for the Warden Service, the Control and Report Centre and the Cyclist Messenger Corps.
There will be more to come so please keep checking the History Centre website for further updates on the collection.
I doff my cap to all the staff and volunteers who have been a part of the project and to those who have given it the publicity the subject deserves.
