Ernest B Ashfield, Norfolk Regiment

[David Seymour]

I am preparing the Thetford Grammar School Remembrance Service for November 2003 which will feature former pupils who died serving in the Norfolk Regiment during the First World War. I am therefore interested in ERNEST B ASHFIELD, Private 29505, 1st Battalion. "Soldiers Died..." gives his second initial as R but school records are clear on B. I have seen the CWGC website. I need to acquire as much information as possible about him, both before and during his army service. I would also like to make contact with any of his relations. Thank you for any help you can give.
