Hes listed in West Riding Territorials in Great war as CH Hill.(Cpl)

His 1915 star MIC is also listed under that name with 917 number date of entry to theatre(April 1915) and discharge(Disembodied) date given as July 1919

IPT Do you have the group in your possession? If so can you confirm the naming is it H or CH?

Hi Ady,

Sorry, no. Found that pic on an auction site.

The text above saying "H. Hill" is the description alongside the picture so I assumed that's what's on the medals.

Thanks Ady

I found the m.i.c for the b.w.m & victory but thought it strange no star mentioned or any other details, never thought to look under a different inital. Strange that the star is marked C.H when all the other medals are just H.Hill - b.w.m 917 H.Hill and the m.m & t.e.m 403549 H.Hill. The m.i.c for the b.w.m and victory gives his name as Horace Hill nothing else.

I couldn't find any service or pension records but was just looking under the H.Hill will have to have another look.
