Hi Rob, Thanks so much for that. It is very interesting and I will explore the possibilities of those names being part of my family. I am so glad that you are interested in those men who served and whose memory is kept alive by people like you.
I acquired some of my grandmother's papers and photographs and I had always been intrigued by a photograph of a young soldier in dress uniform in front of a very exotic backdrop. The studio was
in Trimulgherry India. On the back is an inscription which says to Miss
Maggie Quinn ,(my grandmother) from Henry A Adams G Coy, 1st R Innis Fus R, Gough Barracks ,
Trimulghery (sic) India 10th 1st 1914. I happened upon the Diamond Memorial Project based in Londonderry and found his name on there with some information about his army life. Turns out he was my grandmother's cousin, son of Elizabeth Adams nee West who served in India. He went to the War and lost his life in 1919. I did a little bit of research on his batallion and I believe he may have died at Gallipoli.
Thanks for the other names. Finding people like this enrich our family histories.
Yes I have looked on the covenant. There are quite a few Jamiesons on there including my grandfather (although his name is spelt Jamison).
Thanks again,
Linda
