This is an amazing opportunity to own a museum quality collection of ephemera relating to. Lieutenant (War Substantive) S W J. Regular Army Emergency Commissions’ Civil Affairs Unit Norway. Ferguson was in Leeds City Police before joining the Civil Affairs Unit under the command of Brigadier Percy Hansen VC (Head of Civil Affairs Unit, Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force Mission to Norway). With the ephemera is a 2/19th Civil Affairs book which states Ferguson’s name, rank, former unit (Leeds City Police) and present role: Public Safety Group F. The 2/19 CA Unit booklet also confirms Ferguson’s address which is on many other personal documents as:’4 The Drive Roundhay Leeds. This all ties in with his history in Leeds and Leeds City Police. His date of birth is confirmed in different documents, there is also a large group photo from’PEEL HOUSE’ in 1942, with it is an original document showing all the names of the people on the photo (including his). There are many original press photos of a police parade in Leeds (possibly VE 1945), a personal photo album. Dating from the 1920s. Certificates from is school days, photos of his parents, his wedding photo and order of service from is wedding etc etc. Really too many items to list them all! There is also a LEEDS CITY war tin, dated 1945. All comes as a lot in a briefcase stamped I. (I believe this to be his wife’s). THIS IS ALL RELATED TO. Ferguson and documents his childhood through to his service with Leeds City Police and his WAR SERVICE in WW2 and his work for Civil. Affairs Unit, Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force Mission to Norway. I will post worldwide but please check cost if you live in Australia/Africa/South or Central America or Japan.

There is also a large undated photograph of nurses in Red Cross uniforms , It’s more than likely that Beryl is amongst them somewhere but i don’t know which one she is. There are also 2 members hospital attendance registers both have Beryl’s name on them. The one booklet doesn’t have any entries in it but the other has a couple of pages full of entries dating 1943-44. Along with the paperwork are 4 red Cross medals all issued to Beryl Hingley.
