daggers Posted 18 January , 2011 Share Posted 18 January , 2011 Looks as if the photo was taken In Liverpool. I may know of a current family link, if GS was of the Prescot printing/newspaper family. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Nulty Posted 18 January , 2011 Author Share Posted 18 January , 2011 Cheers chaps, Yeomanry it is. It is a Liverpool picture, Richard, and he is already on my website as an "Also Served", along with his brothers. Much of the information was supplied by a family member, who I am in touch with. See herefor details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
