WW1 info on Stockport Military
« on: Saturday 12 April 08 02:13 BST (UK) »

Where would the 119th Brigade Royal Field Artillery, "C" Battery have fought as they went overseas at the end of 1915.  John Thomas Longden was a blacksmith for this unit and am trying to find out more about him.

Hi Shirl,

I can't help with were John fought but have you looked at the website www.stockport1914-1918.co.uk.
You'll find a brief history of John Thomas Longden on it.

Hi Shirl,

You could try posting a message on the armed forces board, someone on there might know or be able to tell you how to find out.
