Dear all. I am compiling a book for the Wrenbury British Legion about the 3 Dale brothers of Frith Farm, Wrenbury who fell in the Great War. Another brother, Norman, was in the same trench when his brother Frank was killed. What I want to know if he was released from the Army on compassionate grounds. So does anybody have access to the electoral registers for Cheshire (Wrenbury area). If Norman is on them then he could have been sent home early as most were not demobbed until 1919. Any ideas will help. Best wishes, Mark.
