Hi looking for information on William Denny 1st Buffs, number 2812, was wounded in Ypres 26/61915 and again on Somme 15th or 16th Sept 1916.

Anyone got diary entry for that period?

Hi Tony. I used the excellent new ' Beta Search ' in blue at top of page. Typed in " 1st Buffs diary " and got THIS

Have a look through them, you may find some pal with the relevant diary. If not, try posting HERE

Good luck Mike

Hi Tony

In case you havnt seen it William Denny is mentioned in the Historical Records of The Buffs 1914 - 1919 by R.S.H. Moody on the following pages:

173 - 1 Bn., Sgt Denny awarded the MM (LG 27 October 1916, page 10478)

421 - a list of men who returned with 1st Battalion to Fermoy and who had left the same in 1914: Sgt W Denny, MM

515 - APPENDIX III - Rewards M.M. - Denny, W. Sgt 6812.

William Denny was reported as wounded in the Kentish Express and Ashford News on 28 October 1916, Windsor was shown in brackets after his name.

Regards

Steve
