Cheers Jonathan, thank you for looking.  Guess I should be pleased they are all such a 'godly lot' and didn't end up in too much bother!

Hello Jonathon, please could you look to see if my g.g.grandfather is listed.  He was the detachment commander
of the British Unit stationed at Amritsar, India in 1919 where he  apparently refused to open fire at Jallianwala Bagh and was dismissed from service. He never came back to the UK and stayed in India where he finally joined the 1st Bahawalpur Infantry!

His name was Captain J W Massey

thanks

Hello, Jonathan

Please could you look up my Great Grandad.  I know he went AWOL, I believe, when he was in France.  Family rumour has it that he was in the Army but went AWOL to join the Navy.  He ended up marrying my great grandmother whilst he was AWOL.  And after a few weeks of married life joined back up with the Army.

His name was Sidney James Griffiths (although he was born Mottram). 

Here's hoping.  :)

Kind Regards
