DavidTaylor Posted 3 July , 2010 Share Posted 3 July , 2010 Hello: Attached are two pictures of my Great Grandfather Arthur George McQuire (1874-1944) in a uniform. His children had no recollection of him serving in the military. I am trying to figure out what this uniform was for. Someone I spoke with suggested the possibility of WWI Essex volunteer force of some kind. Can anyone help? Are there records of volunteer forces in WWI so I can finally solve this mystery? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cap badge certainly appears to be of the Essex Regiment: http://cgi.ebay.com/ESSEX-Regiment-Bimetta...=item5192e61738 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
