Can anyone help me find out more information into M. E. Vaughan, 16th Lancers. All I know so far is that he was born in Reading in 1875, and died in London in 1961. He served in India (1893) and South Africa (1900) whilst with the 16th Lancers. He also served with the same regiment in the First World War in France (1915) and in Italy (1918). During the Second World War he was a mounted railway security guard.

Any information would be useful.

Thanks

I know that M.E. Vaughan was in No. 13 Gen. Hospital, Wynbery, Cape Colony, South Africa in December 1900, when serving in the Boer War.

Can anyone help with general info on where the 16th Lancers were posted during the Great War. I'm fishing for ideas that will drive my research forward slightly. I seem to have hit a brick wall.

Thanks
