Swisstony25 Posted 25 November , 2018 Share Posted 25 November , 2018 Trying to locate as much information as possible about my great uncle Joseph Henry Carr who was born in Hanley, Staffordshire. Born 1892 (possibly 21st May). I am aware that he served in the North Staffordshire Regiment during the war. If anyone can help with more details regarding his service, photographs, or newspaper information. I would be very grateful. Many thanks, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin DavidOwen Posted 26 November , 2018 Admin Share Posted 26 November , 2018 Pte 12100 Joseph H Carr of North Staffordshire Regt. first entered France on 28th July 1915 and was discharged to Class Z on 21st February 1921 - but I guess you knew that. Anything on the medal rolls re battalion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
