Looking for world war one records for Harry Holland. Born in Bolton Lancashire in 1896, father John Holland, mother ellen nee crowshaw. 1911 census he was 15/16 Pemberton, working underground in a coal mine. Harry married Sarah Alice Noonan in 1917 at Wigan. It has just come to our attention that he was in the army, but we do not know his army number or regiment. Apparently he never spoke about it, so looking for any records or information. At some point he was injured, not sure if it was a bullet wound or shrapnel. He was in hospital because of his injuries, don't know when or where. This info has come from his 90 year old son, but he can't remember. Thanks
