Firstly, may I apologise for neglecting this thread for so long.  Other fascinating things have popped up including one murder and one manslaughter case in the family and I have spent all of my time running these down.

Terrible lot the Hemmenses!!

Anyway, back to Char's war record.  It seems that I may have been given some duff information by one of my rellies as no-one else can remember anything about him having served in the military in any capacity!  Another red herring - sorry.

craigside_pete:  Great site, I'm sure there will be some relevant stuff there when I get time to digest all of the information.  Love the pictures of the memorials!

mmm45:  Many thanks for that link!  Ernest is the grandson of a rather mysterious relative that I have been trying to nail down for ages!  I had no idea that Ernest had served in the Expeditionary Force.

Gotta love this place  ;D
