Hi Redjon !

I wonder if by any chance you may find his regiment and/or service number on his marriage certificate ... or if him and his wife had any children ... it maybe on one of the birth certificates !!  :-\

( I found my Granddads on my Grandmas death certificate ... after looking for years without success !!  ::) ::) )

Worth a look !

Good evening Annie. You never know, i have applied for the marriage cert for his 2nd marriage & should get it next week. He re married in 1920 so if he was still in the army  might get lucky. But he was caught in a gas attack so could have been pensioned earlier. I only found about his 2nd wife a few days ago, & they did have one son. He was born in 1921. So i will soldier on. REDJON.

Annie, i have checked but nothing there. They married in 1912 & i don't think he was in the army then. Thanks again. REDJON.
