Thank you Ron. Your BW threads are always a first stop.

I've presently got the page open as I write. Bloomer's lineage detail is excellent and very easy to follow, but I'm afraid my old dull brain was finding it difficult in skipping between the two Bloomer books to identify the badge that related to each line entry and then on top of that, trying to remember them. And of course they haven't illustrated all the antecedent badges, the 3rd Forfarshire (Dundee Highland) RV in my scan being an example I think. So for me I thought it would be easier to do it all pictorially as far back as my collection would allow.

Ah and you might also see that the 2nd Admin Batt Forfarshire (Forfar & Angus) RV in the scan is described as a shako plate - so I'm not quite there with that one.

Once I get all the TF battalion's antecedents done pictorially it will hopefully identify, without constant recourse to Bloomer, the many gaps that will keep me occupied in trying to fill, without providing a pension for dealers.
All the best
Mark
