warproject Posted 20 September , 2014 Share Posted 20 September , 2014 Hi. I have found the medal card for Albert and censuses and CWGC and asked if any one has a photo of him on the Arras memorial. He came from Middleton Stoney Oxon but was living in Derbyshire prior to enlisting. Therefore does anyone have him on a absent voters list, or a newspaper noting his death etc. T.I.A.

stevem49 Posted 20 September , 2014 Share Posted 20 September , 2014 Medal rolls have him serving in 1/6th and then 10th battalion. Mike Briggs is the expert on 6th battalion, so may have something on him. Steve M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebriggs Posted 21 September , 2014 Share Posted 21 September , 2014 He was one of several men from the Derbyshire Yeomanry that was posted to the 1/6th Battalion in late (december) 1916 or early (January) 1917. His original number in DY was 3145. cheersMike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
