More on Type 5 Censor

[Chris Grimshaw]

Couple of puzzles,

Censor 5 / 4470 

Cancelled Field Post Office 12 X? – Dated 22 May 1917
Security Phase III – Used by 190th Brigade 63rd (Naval Division)

Censor 5 / 1721

Cancelled Field Post Office 12 X – Dated 17 March 1917
Security Phase III – Used by 190th Brigade 63rd (Naval Division)

Can anyone confirm 5 / 4470 is FPO 12 X

Cheers  Chris

I have two records from AK's material for 5/1721, confirmed from the ledger -

01/01/1917 FPO183 Phase II 190 Bde 63 Div. Allocated to 10th Royal Dublin Fusiliers (part of 190 Bde)

20/07/1917 FPO187 Phase IV 154 Bde 51 Div. Around this time the 10th RDF transferred to 48 Bde 16 Div. This does not match with FPO187

Unfortunately, I have no record of 5/4470, either from is material, index cards or ledger,
