Re: Old photos of Denny,Stirlingshire, Scotland
« on: Wednesday 31 August 11 00:21 BST (UK) »
Hi
I don't know if anyone can help me but I am looking for some information.  My paternal grandfather Francis Frederick FARLEY was in The Royal Berkshire Regiment and was wounded in WW1. I believe he was sent to somewhere in Denny to recuperate. Does anyone know of any military hospital or large house in or or around Denny where wounded soldiers would have been housed?

Thanks

Lizzie F

Hi LizzyF,
I think it would be worthwhile checking out the Falkirk local history society

www.falkirklocalhistorysociety.co.uk

Also you may want to Start a new post aimed at the military page were you may find a fellow rootschatter who has all the info you need,
good luck,
Billy.

Hi Billy

Thanks for your suggestions. I have emailed Anne Philip at Falkirk Local History Society. I may start a new topic on the Military page if I knew how to! lol

Thanks once again for your help

Hi LizzieF,
If you start the new post under the heading 'WW1 military hospital' then hopefully the fantastic moderator will move it into the military section,
cheers,
Billy.
