Life
John Thomas McGreevy was born at Ipswich, Queensland, about 1886 and died of wounds in France on 22 August 1918. Our family tree records the more precise birth date 4 October 1886 and names Mary Ann Hickey as his mother, but this archive contains no birth registration confirming either detail. His military record identifies his father as Peter McGreevy.
Before enlisting, John was a single Roman Catholic farm hand living at Amberley via Ipswich. The AIF Project entry records "Regimental number 2849," "Occupation Farm hand," and "Age at embarkation 30." It also names "Father, Peter McGreevy" as his next of kin at the same Amberley address.
John enlisted on 2 October 1916. He served as a private with the 42nd Battalion and embarked with its 6th Reinforcement aboard HMAT Demosthenes on 23 December 1916. His recorded war service was on the Western Front, and his service was recognized with the British War Medal and Victory Medal.
The Australian War Memorial entry reads:
Service number 2849, | Unit 42nd Australian Infantry Battalion, | Date of Death 22 August 1918, | Cause of Death Died of wounds, | Place of Association Ipswich, Queensland, Australia.
Three weeks after his death, his family placed a thanks notice in the Queensland Times: "Mr. and Mrs. P. McGREEVY and FAMILY sincerely THANK all kind relatives and friends who sent messages, cards, letters of sympathy, also those who otherwise sympathised with them in the loss of their son and brother, Pte. John Thomas McGreevy." Its wording preserves both the family’s grief and the support they received.
John was buried in Daours Communal Cemetery Extension, France, in Plot VI, Row A, Grave 8. This archive does not include his full service dossier, so the wound, hospital course, will, and any correspondence with his family remain unknown.
How we know this: Military records and the family’s contemporary thanks notice document his service, father, address, death, burial, and remembrance; his exact birth date and mother are not proved. [1][2][3]

What we still don't know
- Does a Queensland birth registration confirm 4 October 1886 and identify his mother?
- What do the complete service dossier and hospital papers say about his wounds and final days?
- Did his file preserve a will or family correspondence?
- Download and read the complete NAA B2455 dossier for physical description, wounds, hospital course, will, and family correspondence; obtain the Queensland birth registration to test 4 October 1886 and identify his mother.
- [BLOCKED, 7 August 2026] Three Australian sources that would carry his service dossier and next-of-kin were tried and all three refuse automated access: the **Australian War Memorial** search renders only in a JavaScript app that returned nothing; the **Commonwealth War Graves Commission** answers 403 from an Azure firewall, in the browser as well as to a script; and **Trove**, the National Library's newspaper archive, serves a proof-of-work anti-bot challenge. None of these was worked around, and none should be retried the same way. **They are all free to a person at a keyboard** — service number **2849** is the key to the AIF dossier at the National Archives of Australia, and Trove would hold the Ipswich death notices for this whole family.
