Theraez Posted 3 July , 2015 Share Posted 3 July , 2015 Hi everyone, I'm researching my wife's great grandfather who died at Loos on the 25th Sep 1915. He was a member of the 8th Bn Seaforth Highlanders and is named on the memorial at Loos (KIA but with no known grave). Reading the war diary it is quite specific to what each company was doing during the battle but I'm not able to ascertain what company Pte Andrew Davidson was a member of. Any clues would be really appreciated. Regards, Darren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
