regimental number and service records

[dafpilot]

hello to you all,
                      I was hoping one of you really clever people on here can help.
    I am trying to find details of my grandfather's war record, but all I have to go on is his name and what regiment he was in,
his name was Albert Edward Hart born in Southampton in 1892 and in 1914 he was in the 2/6 Essex regiment at the rank of private, these were the details on my fathers birth certificate, at the time of service he was living in Southampton, is this enough to go on??
