Pte. Robert Thomson . British Army Highland Light Infantry from Glasgow My mother-in-law was adopted and has now recovered her adoption records. They have disclosed that her father was Robert Thomson of the HLI. Her mother lived in Forfar and we presume my mother-in-law was conceived in December 1943.
The records further show that Robert Thomson admitted to the Regiment's padre that he was the father of the child. However, he was posted abroad and never seen again. He came from Glasgow and may have been posted to the Forfar area for training.
Would anyone have any information leading to the identity of Robert Thomson from this information?
Any information would be appreciated. My mother-in-law is 67 years of age and would like to find out more about her natural father.

Ord Sea. William Leaver Thornber . Royal Navy HMS Scotia from Welling, Kent I had often heard my Father, William Thornber say that he has served at Scotia as a Telegraphist. In fact my parents named their house after his short time there.
Both of my parents have now passed on, but whilst emptying the contents of their house I came across my Father's old Service Records in which it showed that he was at Scotia May 1943 - July 1943.
As an ex RN Submariner, I am now trying to trace some of the other places and ships where my Father served as part of tracing our family tree. They include HMS Collingwood, Beamer, Boscawen, Odyssey, Europa and Phoenicia

Ronald Percy "Snowy" Thorne . Royal Marines HMS Sirius from Sherborne, Dorset My father, Ron Thorne, served as a gunner on HMS Sirius. He was called Snowy because his hair was so blond it was white. He never spoke much about the war but I know he was at the Normandy Landings and in the Mediterranean. He was also on HMS Birmingham. He met my Mother in Cape Town and in 1946 he sent her the money to travel to England. They were married in 1947 in his home town of Sherborne. They returned to South Africa, but settled in Dorset again a couple of years later.
