Hello Tafski

Please could you give me information about where the 1st battalion were on 10th March 1916, and what they were doing? My great uncle, Lieutenant-Colonel Lawrence Graeme, was killed in action on that day, whilst in command of the battalion. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Alex

Hi Tafski,

Can you please look up for me what the 1st Camerons were doing on the 15/3/16, I'm looking for any mention of W.R. Griffith who was killed on this date. CWGC gives his rank as L/Cpl although I'm not sure this is correct.

Many thanks for any help you can give.

Hi Tafski

If this offer is still open, can I ask you to see where the battalion were between 4 and 17 September 1914? I am interested in Private Andrew Russell, who arrived at a hospital in England on 19 September with a bullet wound to the chest.

Thanks!
