Thank you all for this info.
I am going to see if I can get a copy of my grandads birth certificate as I now believe the name we all new him by George might have been his middle name, a common occurrence at the time.
We have always had trouble with him, on censuses and certificates because of this.
But I feel pretty confident we now know his regiment the RSF by the cap badge..
Thanks again and I will let you know if we find anything else out.


Just as a matter of interest would you parents know????????
or any other relatives

Thanks for asking, My mother is 90 and has little or no memory left now. She is the last in her family so there is only me and my sister now on that side of the family and I never met granddad George.
I managed to go back quite away on my dads side of the family but cant get passed my granddad on my mothers side.

Is there no "little tin box" with all the old photos and documents?

most families have one

surely either the forces reunited site or a geneology site can help?

parish records?

birth/marriage/death records?
(hatched/matched/dispatched?).....
:cry:

have you got his FULL name and DOB?
