Stevieo,

Have a look at yesterday's post headed Connaught Rangers under the Other Theatres section and especially Mark's response, this may be helpful.

Regards

Grandson of

John Leahy KIA 4th July 1917 with 1/17th London Poplar & Stepney Rifles and listed on the Menin Gate

Also Grandson of Albert Hardy 3rd then 1st Btn Connaught Rangers , a WW1 survivor

Hi,

The 1st Battalion was involved in the Battle of Messines in early November 1914, as part of the Lahore Division.

They were based around Rue de Bacquerot.

Regards Mark
