Name: Anthony Burgess Estimated Birth Year: abt 1876 Age at enlistment: 40 Document Year: 1916 Regimental Number: 4355 Regiment Name: 3rd Connaught Rangers ETA: conclusion was "not result of but aggravated by active service".

museumtom Posted 23 February , 2012 Author Share Posted 23 February , 2012 April, 1917. Clare Soldier Killed in Action. News has been received from the War Office by his mother, that Sergeant Michael Butler, D.C.M, Ennis, has been killed in action. He was granted last summer the D.C.M, for distinguished conduct in the field, and subsequently promoted to be Sergeant, and on his first visit to Ennis, steps were taken for a public presentation to mark fellow-townspeople’s appreciation of his gallantry. Could this be Michael Butler, Corporal, 8121, 1st batt, Royal Munster Fusiliers Kia France 09/09/16 Born Drumcliffe, Co Clare Listed in Irelands Memorial Records 14 -18 Supposed to be listed in LG 11/03/16 for DCM, But I can't find entry CWGC - http://www.cwgc.org/search-for-war-dead/casualty/75228638/BUTLER,%20MICHAEL Grant Hello Grant. Believe it or not its not him, but, he is a lad I did not have, well done and thank you very very much. I would not have found him without your help. The man above smay have been listed as Burley with a bit of a mixup in IMR. Then again it may just be him. With the mixup in the records it is difficult to nail him down and the DOD is slightly different. Thank you again.

Verrico2009 Posted 23 February , 2012 Share Posted 23 February , 2012 Hello Verrico, I am not really sure. I cannot see a Westmeath connection, but thank you for your help. I know - if only all the MICs had been completed with addresses! Is there any way to annotate your original post, Tom, so that we can see the ones you're satisfied have been nailed to give an idea of who's left?

jdoyle Posted 24 February , 2012 Share Posted 24 February , 2012 MOSSMAN, HARRY. Rank: Sapper. Regiment or Service: Royal Engineers. Unit;97th Company. Date of Death:02-01-1916. Age at Death, 28. Service No:16942. Died of wounds. A bit inconclusive this one and may need a death certificate to find cause of death and date of death. Sapper Harry Mossman appears to have enlisted 11th Nov 1907; discharged 18/7/1915 as no longer physically fit. He served in France from 15/8/1914 (MIC says 23/8/1914) to 27/12/1914 and was then Home 28/12/1914 to 18/7/1915. No mention of any wounds in either his service record or pension record. There is a letter in his service record from Chelsea Hospital. In his pension record there is a form re admission to Chelsea Hospital 22/7/1915. He was in 9 Field Company, RE rather than 97th. I flag the MIC entry above as 9th Field Co arrived in Boulogne on the 23rd August 1914. 97th embarked for France in September 1915. I see there's a thread on Rootschat re him. A Harry Mossman's death is registered in Q4 1915. No other death for Harry Mossman is listed. His brother Fred and his father John Frederick both appear to have died Q2 1915. His father had been a Corporal in the RHA in Portobello Barracks at the time of a sisters baptism. No family tree on Ancestry with Harry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
