Thanks Lesley, for that rundown..
Lawrence Butler, had no notation of any assignment on his indent..
I am aware he worked making furniture for the Government...
Would he have lived at Hyde Park barracks, during this time,.or, as I most
probably think, would he have had some living quarters set up in the Lumber
Yards.
Thanks
Gay
