Hi Morten,
Are you aware that at the time of WW1 Bournemouth was in Hampshire?
You could contact the Dorset Family History Society (www.dorsetfhs.org.uk) and ask for your request to be printed in their next journal.

Hi Morten,
My grandfather was from Bournemouth and was in the army in WW1, but he spent the whole of the war in India. Would he be any use to you?
Best wishes,
Linda

Hi Morten,
My grandad enlisted in Parkstone, although he was from Durham he may have moved down there before the war, I am not sure yet. He married a Parkstone girl after he was invalided out and lived in Parkstone for the rest of his life.
