Family History Beginners Board / Military records John Cross

« on: Sunday 15 November 20 19:07 GMT (UK) »

Hello, I'm trying to find out whay great grandfather, John William Cross did during WW1.
He was born during the third quarter of 1883 in Heighington, Lincolnshire.
The 1911 census shows that he was living in Washingborough Lincoln.
His parents were John and Mary Cross and at the time of the war he was married to Daisy Cross with 2 children.
I have spent a long time looking, it would appear in the wrong place.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Hello everyone.
I am trying to find out what my grandad did in WW2. I cannot find any military records about him at all but looking at the time he lived, 1905 - 1968, I sure that he must have done some sort of national service somewhere. He was from Portsmouth.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me

Hello
I'm trying to find out about George Cross (the person....not the medal!).
I know that he was born in 1753 in West Halton, North Lincolnshire,
I also know that at some time he got married to Jemima but that's all I do know.
If anyone could help me I will be very grateful.
Thanks in advance.
