BRONNO Posted 19 December , 2009 Share Posted 19 December , 2009 Thought pals might enjoy this picture. With the photo came a card that reads Mr J H Roe 4th Btn Sherwood Foresters Any idea of identities/time and place taken? Hi Tim, are you sure the picture shown is the 4th Battalion? i am certain its Officers of the 5th Battalion, Notts and Derby Regt. I can name all of the officers which includes Lt/Col B.H. Beaumont-Checkland MC,TD and the 2i/c Major J.D. Kerr MC,TD. The photo was taken in 1924/25 most likely at Catterick camp. Let me know if you want the full list of names. BRONNO.

Guest Ebayjunkie Posted 24 October , 2015 Share Posted 24 October , 2015 Hi there, just joined. I saw on here that Dave is looking for a photo of my great grandfather Beaumont Henry Beaumont-Checkland. This is late given that he was looking for it in January 2014 but hopefully not too late.

I’m researching Captain Frederick Henry Meredith Lewes, who was a Lieutenant in the officers’ photo below just before the 1/5 Battalion left for France in 1915. I see that Captains JD Kerr and BH Beaumont-Checkland are both in the third row. Edited 28 February by Tracey Ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRONNO Posted 4 March Share Posted 4 March Tracey, I'm a little confused with regards to your question of naming of officers are we talking about the first post from 2009? All the 1/5th Battalion Officers are named in one of the post at the bottom of the picture which was taken from the 1/5th Battalion history by L.W. de Grave (1930). Let me know.
