Percival G Crowhurst. RSR 24378

[john crowner]

I have seen the MIC for Percival G Crowhurst,Royal Sussex Regiment, G/24378. He was born in 1899,and was probably the nephew of Percival E Crowhurst born 1891. I have previously searched for Percival E, as Percy, and have a service number of SW/5828, 13th Royal Sussex. What adds to the confusion is that , in 1901 census, they both appear in the Framfield sub division of Uckfield. One was living in Framfield, and the other in East Hoathly. Would anyone have any further details of these two's, service history, address, or next of kin? Anything would be welcome. Percival G was the son of George, who was Percival E (PERCY ) elder brother. They both survived the war. Thanks for any help. John

Thank you for this, Graeme. It was (Both were ! ) the correct family. I was lucky to get the complete service record for Joseph with the RFA .No record of Frederick's service record, if any, can be traced. Percy, or percival,well, maybe!
