Remembered Today:

Ernest Charles Sterry

195175 lived at 90 Milkwood Rd, Herne Hill. He was a baker. He had married Alice Florence Sawyer in Lambeth in 1914, and a son, William George Ernest, was born in Lambeth in 1916. He attested 10/12/1915 and was sent to the reserve. He was mobilized 1/2/1917, Royal Horse Artillery, and went abroad 27/4/1917 where he was attached to L Battery.

I think Russ almost certainly has the right man.  I can't see where the 391716 number comes from.

The RFA/RHA number series didn't run to such a high value, and it's not a RFA/RHA TF 6-digit re-number.

So my prediction is that the OP has provided an incorrect number.

WGE Sterry was born 1916. So did not serve in WW1.

There is a WGE Sterry that was an RAF officer in WW2. Poss same man but outside of purpose of this forum.
