A warm welcome to rootschat .
Do you have his dates of birth & death? Do you have a scan of the picture you could upload [make it <500 mb]. I assume you have seen the medal award roll on ancestry....
It may be worth having the post transferred to the Armed Forces WW1 board. Quite a few very knowledgeable people there., although they may see your post here.
There are a couple of public trees on ancestry with Francis J Herring b Huntingdonshire 1899 , one maybe yours but you could contact the tree owner & ask them what they know.
Welcome to Rootschat from me too.
Just to add, if you scan the photo to upload here it would be best to scanned at
500kb not
mb as that would be a huge file and would be too big to post here.
