Hello Garen,

So good of you to give me more info. Will you be adding Uncle Joe  ;) to your database? Hope you can.

I would question his entitlement to the 1879 South Africa medal (unless he was in a different battery in 1879) and the Egypt 1882 medal (if he died in Apr 1881) - what is your source for these?
The source was the UK, Military Campaign Medal and Award Rolls, 1793-1949
Quote

Name:   Joseph Roden
Campaign or Service:   Afghan
Service Date:   1878-1882
Regimental Number:   6250

and it has this root / title
Code: [Select]
Asia  > Afghanistan, Egypt, South Africa 1878-1882  > Royal Artillery - Afghan 1878-1890, South Africa 1879, Egypt 1882  >  Page   of 298

I took an image of the campaign medal with clasps, I am not sure what clasps if any he should have, can you let me know what you think?

I seems strange he joined up just for this Campaign which is why I wondered if he had joined earlier. Is there a way to find out when he enlisted to the RHA?

Now what we need is HBO / Showtime or another US TV producer to make an Drama epic with your database, and have occasional mentions of all our relatives ;-)

Thanks once again.

Hi Garen and All

My Relation is a Joseph Roden from West Deeping, 6250 Bombardier Royal Artilery 6 Battery 3rd Brigade (taken from the 1881 Census), he was living with his sister-in-law, a widow. He was to receive the Campaign medal according to the Royal Artillery - Afghan 1878-1890, South Africa 1879, Egypt 1882  Page 18 of 298. He died in West Deeping of Acute Acute bronchitis 12th Apr 1881. The death cert states he was 'Royal Horse Artilleryman'.

I would to know more, such as when he joined up and locations during this campaign plus any other wars / service history. Also what some of the short hand means on the RHS column.

There are 4 records at http://www.findmypast.co.uk/army-service-records-search.action?submit=1&redef=X&birthYear=1844&birthYearTolerance=2&attestationYear=&attestationYearTolerance=2&series=ALL
 but I don't have subscription to there.

Thank you. Unfortunately I do not have the funds for paying to get my own families records.

But your reply is very helpful.

World War One / South Staffordshire 41064: John W Worsdall
« on: Monday 05 September 11 15:18 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I am trying to determine the battalion my Grandpa John Wallace Worsdall served under and then it's history, though I really should just determine his Military history. He was born 1898 and joined under age (family History?) and lost his right arm during the war. We do not have the Silver War badge (SWB).

During WWII he was a 2nd Lt in the homeguard and from his ID photo we saw he had two Medal ribbons 'Squeak' (British War Medal) and 'Wilfred' Victory Medal. Suddenly the Medal record I purchased made sense. He was not awarded 'Pip'. Useful info as this may narrow down the Battalion he served in, not sure.

So does the 4 in 41064 indicate 4th Battalion?

Has anyone else any info willing to share?

M.

This maybe somewhat inaccurate but it's a work in progress

This link takes you into the tree at Charles Henry Worsdall  Born 22 May 1873 - Died 05 Feb 1941
[LINK REMOVED TMP BACK SOON] http://www.wikitree.com/ and you can click on the ancestory pedigree chart icon

Things get a bit uncertain after Albine Worsdall as you can see, was hoping others may have more info.
