Stephenb Posted 27 March , 2004 Share Posted 27 March , 2004 I have a fairly complete set of the Roll of Honour pages published in the Illustrated London News 1914-1918. If you would like me to search for a photo of an Officer killed during the Great War then please reply to this post. I need rank, name, regiment and date of death details. There's always a possibility he may have been recorded in this publication. N.B. it may take me a few days to reply so please be patient.

If its not too much trouble, please could you look for: CAPERN, HENRY JAMES (HAL) 2 Lt, 11th btn, KRRC, "attd 59th T.M. bty" (I don't know what this means) died 22 March 1918, aged 23 He was my grandmother's cousin. She lost an uncle and 5 cousins, but Hal was the only one who was an officer. He was an only child and I have no idea what happened to his photos, medals etc after his parents died. It would be lovely to see a photo of him. thank you, Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow here's the details: From "FOR KING AND COUNTRY: OFFICERS ON THE ROLL OF HONOUR" October 21st 1916 MAJOR GUY EGERTON KIDD R.F.A. Son of Dr. Percy Kidd, M.A., of No. 60, Brook Street, Grosvenor Square, W." One more less for you to search for!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
