Worcestershire Regiment Query
« on: Friday 25 July 08 16:53 BST (UK) »
Not sure if the WW1 bit would be a better place but ill pop it here 1st.
Can anyone help solve a mystery.
What i would like if anyone has the resources is a look up of the Worcestershire Regiments Medal Roll books from the Great War

The entry is for a Private Ernest Hobson 205028 WEST RIDING REGIMENT AND WORCESTERSHIRE REGIMENT
L/102/B14 PAGE 3163 is the reference number as we are trying to determine Battalion.

I know they are at Kew but someone with an interest from Worcester may have copies

Thanks for any help.

Hi Ady

If I were you I would get in touch with the Worcester Museum & Art Gallery as the Worcesters Museum have an area in that building

All the very best
