Thank you for all your help, this is a start which I can work on.
I wonder if that's the right John Telfer then??

Just reduce it in size until it's just under 500Kb. there shouldn't be any need to re-scan.
Give it a unique name as all filenames are stored & you can't have 2 the same.

And yet on Army Register of Soldiers Effects, it says that George Telfer killed on 25th April 1918, his father is George. ???
