ALBERT W BAKER 4th Batt Worcs Regt

[Emjaybee]

I have all birth, death and census info from 1891 to 1941, putting him with his family in Worcester, UK. I am seeking any info on his army service.
There is an Albert William Baker listed in Worcestershire Regt Rolls, 4th Battalion, army number 45102, but I can't confirm that he was resident at 2 Diglis Ave,Worcester, the address of my man.
There is an online list of people missing from the census taken between 1918 and 1919 and an Albert William Baker of the same birth date does appear there, so maybe he was away with  the army.
Can anybody find his military records? I have searched FindMyPast and Anc with no luck, only Bakers from the wrong area.

Thanks for reading this long message.

Hi Mike

As you have an address you should look at the electoral roll for 1918-19. Or is this your 'census'?

Hi Again

The man in the Worcestershire Regiment was awarded a SWB and the roll gives his age as 40. So a different man.

Hi Mike
I can't see any birth registration in 1891 (to 1892) Worcestor to fit?
Knowing his exact DoB could help if one is looking at records and sees a match - do you have the full dOB?

Only birth year from 1911 census 1878.
List of silver badge holders dated 1918
1878 plus 40 equals 1918

So he was born abt 1878 (not 1891?)  - according to the 1911 Census?

Anc shows in 1911 census born abt 1878. Living in Worcester with his wife Elizabeth.
Pity I can't cut and paste it, but copyright will not allow it.
