There are 60 men on this list of men from the Army Service Corps who were captured by the Germans on or before Christmas Day 1914. This data has been transcribed from the following Imperial War Museum collections:
B.O.2 1/121 is a typed list sent by the ASC Prisoners of War Fund containing details of three ASC men who were PoWs prior to 25th December 1914 and who had since died (letter to Sir Ernest Goodhart dated 16th January 1919)
B.O.2 1/122 is a double-sided typed list sent by the ASC Prisoners of War Fund containing details of ASC men who were PoWs prior to 25th December 1914 (letter to Sir Ernest Goodhart dated 16th January 1919)
B.O.2 1/123 is a three-page typed list sent by the ASC Prisoners of War Fund containing details of ASC men who were PoWs prior to 25th December 1914 (letter to Sir Ernest Goodhart dated 16th January 1919)
My full transcription of these men (not reproduced here) also contains the home address and/or next of kin address of all of the men. For more information about these so-called 'Princess Mary tin PoWs' see my 1914 PoWs page. The majority of these men will also have records published by the International Committee of the Red Cross. Searching is free; finding your man is another matter entirely.
The full transcription is available for sale for £20. Contact me if you would like to purchase a copy.
