My Father, a british serviceman was made an honorary oozlefinchling in the fifties or sixties. Does anyone have any information on the oozlefinch and is there a record of those that were given the honour of being an honorary oozlefinchling? My father was at the time a Major in the Royal Artillery. Major E G Stadward. He is now dead and I wanted to find out if there was any more information about him or the order. Thanks Jeremy Stadward
