Missing Medals

My father's medals have been missing since the late 1960's and were last known to be in a house in Scarborough, Western Australia. He was Captain F.T. PICTON-KING. Keen to recover these originals, reward for information leading to return.

I am searching for the family of Frank KIRBY who was killed during the Second World War. Able Seaman Frank KIRBY was a British sailor born in the United Kingdom and serving in the Royal Navy during the Second World War. He had survived the sinking of HMS Cornwall (200 miles South West of Ceylon) in April 1942 and there is no explanation as to how he came to be on board Kuttabul; other than the fact that Kuttabul was a depot ship where sailors often found themselves temporarily placed and in between postings. Frank KIRBY was 26 years of age at the time of his death. If you are related to Frank, there is an organisation in Australia which is called the Kuttabul Commemoration Project and they would like to make contact with you.

I hope to reclaim a British War Medal awarded posthumously to Arlington D. WARD, Service Number 832524, 26th Battalion, Canadian infantry. He was lost at Vimy Ridge, April 9, 1917. Name engraved on the Vimy Memorial. He had enlisted with the 145th Battalion (Kent-Westmorland) which was broken up in England with many recruits, like Arlington, moving to the 26th New Brunswick Regiment. Medal thought to have been sold on EBay in 2008. May also have received Victory Medal, also missing. Memorial Plaque remains in the family. Would like to be reunited with its mates.

My late Uncle John's Conspicuous Gallantry Medal was sold as part of a family collection in the early 1980s at Christie's in London. His full name was John Patrick McGARRY. I have been trying to trace this medal along with the wider collection for the last 10 years. I am desperate to track these down and return them to the family. If anyone has any information I will be eternally grateful to hear from you. Cheers Tim McGarry
