8444 Pte GEORGE WILLIAM COATES 2nd K.O.Y.L.I.

Greetings from an old outlaw.

Firstly may I wish all of you out there a Very Happy New Year .

I am doing research on 8444 Private George William Coates of the 2nd K.O.Y.L.I. who was born in Driffield which

is local to me now. I obtained a copy of his M.I.C. which shows him entitled to the War and Victory medals . It

also  states that has was K.I.A. on 1/11/1914 so one would assume that he was also entitled to the 1914 or 1914-15

Star .There is no mention of this nor is there any date for his entry into a Theatre of War . 

So, I would welcome any opinion's as to how this oversite could have occurred.
