No service or pension records for him on Ancestry, unfortunately. Someone did make a page for him on Ancestry though, did you know that?

Posted

Oh what a shame, was rather hoping he would be on there :(

When you say a page Matt, what do you mean? I know he is mentioned on a couple of trees on there...mine & second cousin's lol

Yep, that's probably it then. A page from a family tree, with a link to him in the 1901 census.
