I am trying to find out the death and/or burial details of my Grandfather John Carter born in Warrington in 1885(Volume 8c Page 187).At the time of his death he was living in Curtis Street,Levenshulme,Manchester 19 and as far as I can recall died between 1960-1965 but as yet cannot trace his death.Hoping someone can help or point me in the right direction,all information will be greatly received.Yours Sincerely. Brian Carter.

Hi Lesley, thank you for your link to the Lancashire Fusiliers website, but this was the first port of call in my search for details about my great grandfather.I have posted a query on their forum, but sadly their reply was to contact the NA.So until I can get down to Kew I will have to continue the hunt.Once again, thank you. Brian.

Is this any better? I have tried to re-scan it at 600dpi.Hope this works.

I am trying to find information on my great grandfather John Carter.His service number was 4416, and he served in the Lancashire Fusiliers.I know that he was in the 2nd battalion that was attached to the 11th brigade that fought at Spion Kop in January 1900, but I cannot find him in the casualty rolls or the 1901 census which leads me to believe that he survived the campaign.The info I'd like is: (1) What medals would he have been entitled to (2) Would he have fought in the Sudan campaign of 1898 and (3) where would I find more personal details like home address,next-of-kin,siblings etc. Any info or pointers to where I could find out would be greatly appreciated.Yours Sincerely. Brian Carter.

Thanks to everybody for their help.I will certainly try the British Medal Forum first, and dependant on what (if any) information I receive back my next port of call will be  the NA. Once again, thank you.  Brian Carter.
