John Frederick Trevers

[Angela Trevers]

My interest in the Royal Welch Fusilliers is through my husband. He is trying to trace details of his father John Frederick Trevers who he believes to have been a RSM. He was billeted at a house in Radavormwald in Germany at the end of WW11. He left the army in appoximately 1947/48. Does anyone remember him or is there anyone who can possilbly give us some information about him?

Many thanks, Angela

Dear Angela,
From Regimental Records, the 1<SUP>st</SUP> Battalion Royal Welch Fusiliers (1<SUP>st</SUP> Bn RWF) moved from Penley Hall camp Shropshire and arrived at Caernarvon barracks Dusseldorf Germany. on 1<SUP>st</SUP> July 1946.I note that “Trevers J F" at that time was serving with 1<SUP>st</SUP> Bn RWF as B Company Quartermaster Sergeant (CQMS). In 1947 I note that he had moved on promotion to D Coy as Company Sergeant Major. (CSM) On the 1<SUP>st</SUP> Bn RWF Staff List 1949-1950 I note that CSM Trevers had move back to his old appointment with B Coy as CQMS. His name doesn’t appear on the 1950-1951 Staff List, by now he could have been demobbed. I hope that the above is helpful to you.
Regards Glyn
