Hi Tony,

Ireland’s Memorial Records 1914-1918 state:

Name: John Ernest Booth

Regiment: Royal Dublin Fusiliers

Regimental Number: 40798

Death Date: 17 Aug 1917

Death Place: France

Birth Place: Coton, Staffordshire

Can't seem to find anything apart from a Soldiers Died entry with the same details. No MIC that I can find.

Regards,

Dave
