MalcolmE Posted 20 October , 2013 Share Posted 20 October , 2013 I have found his medal card on Ancestry, it also says that he joined in 1915. It also mentions a regimental No 153835 for the MCGC. I have spent many hours on the internet looking for any information about him. If anybody has got any information about him would very much appreciated.

MalcolmE Posted 20 October , 2013 Author Share Posted 20 October , 2013 Hi Barry, The picture is of me, Harry Elsmore was my grandad. I did not know he was in the K.S.L.I until my mother left me a photo of him. Regards Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6th Shropshires Posted 21 October , 2013 Share Posted 21 October , 2013 Hi Malcolm Could I ask for a copy of his photo, I am collecting as much info. as possible on the K.S.L.I. (Great War only) and the men who severed in the Regiment. I have been building a database for the past 25 years. I have also not long started a Facebook page which I hope to build up over next few years. No worries if you do not want to pass on his photo.
