Hi there,

If you have a photo and it has cap or collar badges, or anything else that might identify his regiment, please scan it to as high a resolution as possible and put it on here.

Regards

Hi,

Liberty's attestation papers are available in the British Army Service Records 1760-1915 section on FindmyPast. There are four pages so it would be worth your while to have a look at this information, achooo.

Kind regards,

Pels.
