No death. Original image doesn't have much more information than the transcript,,,other than he appeared to have joined from the army. No mention of regiment.

Hi  Paulo Leeds,


 If you go,  as gortonboy did, via find my past   and get the image of his attestation papers you can view the whole dossier, even print it if you wish.  Each page is a single image if you wish to save to your computer.  You must save each image.

You will see everything they have regarding you Frederic,

Cheers Essnellr

Hi Paulo,

Sorry i have been busy with a brick wall of my own  .  About Frederick Perry. Yes there is a bit more.

I shall PM you with what else it says. also bear in mind that the service nos were used over and over each time there was another war. However their recs show those specific to them.

Cheers Essnell
