redhighbury Posted 10 August , 2009 Share Posted 10 August , 2009 I am trying to find out about my g/grandmothers`s brother William Henry Washbrook. I have found a Pte W H Washbrook (39293) on CWGC who was in 2nd Btn Welsh Reg and died 8/9/16. My William was born in Essex so not sure if this is my man as he is in Welsh Reg. Can anyone check his address or place of enlistment on SDGW. Many thanks. DAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
