Or everywhere...

(Since their motto is 'Ubique', Latin for 'everywhere')

Have you a name for him so we can do a search?
Researching: Reffell, Rattle, Summerhayes, Dane, Masset, Burchatt & Leshley... & Jones!

Hi Jamaine  :)

you may regret asking that  ;D,

Here is it , in a nut shell,   I went into a shop today , and picked up a photo of a soldier , WW1,

on the back it just say's Willy Garbutt,  nothing else  ???

I am guessing Willy could be William, but that could be his middle name or first name , etc , etc,  ::)

Willy insisted on coming home with me, so I could try and find his family for him  ::)
