HUMBER-Private-E-9704-Depot-Yorkshire Regiment----30/08/1915-----KENSA

[GRANVILLE]

This information is all I have to work with - as supplied by another kind forum member. I am subscribed to Ancestory, but seem incapable of getting much out of it. Can anyone advise on how I can use it to extract a little more information on this particlar chap?

Ernest Humber - entry on CWGC

MIC shows he arrived in the theatre of war on 5 October 1914. Could he be a pre-war regular?

As you subscribe to Ancestry, you could try looking at Soldiers Died in the Great War section: often gives birthplace and where they enlisted.

Born Wandsworth,Enlisted London Resident Southgate from SDGW on Ancestry....He died at "home" looks like a pre war regular by his number?
