MBE's awarded by King George V

[Wylbur]

Hi;

Can anyone give me an idea as to where I can go to find out how many MBE's were awarded by King George V?

Thanks!!!

As far as I know there is no complete record available on the open market - The Central Chancery of Orders and Knighthood may have the figures - but the GeorgeV issue continued until May 1937 so if you are interested upto the death of GeorgeV, the awards between his death and May 1937 would have to be deducted.

A search of the LG would give you those details as well but that would be very time consuming

The only figure I have is that 10,479 awards of the MBE were Gazetted upto February 1921. - but that does not include the ungazetted awards to Foreign Recipients.
