Chris_Baker Posted 23 February , 2004 Share Posted 23 February , 2004 In a few days I am going to look for the papers of Robert Jones, known to have served as QM Lt with the 13th Welsh from late 1917. He may also have been made Hon Captain at some point. However I fear his papers may not yet be available as his relatives believe he served in WW2 in the Western Desert. Any info or pointers to info about this man would be most useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernard_Lewis Posted 26 February , 2004 Share Posted 26 February , 2004 Chris - you'll know I guess that the 13 Welsh were part of 114 Brigade. Fought at Mametz Wood, 3rd Ypres etc. If desperate I can probably 'piggy back' you some general info on the Swansea Battalion that applies equally to the 13 Welsh as they moved around together...
