Guest FRANKBARTHOLOMEW Posted 30 July , 2003 Share Posted 30 July , 2003 Hi, I'm about to start researching my great uncle, Arthur Parkin (born c.1900)- who apparently enlisted at 14, in the Doncaster area. Which battalions were recruiting between 1914-15 in the Donny area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FRANKBARTHOLOMEW Posted 2 August , 2003 Share Posted 2 August , 2003 Thanks Andy, I think, from looking up the details of the Yorkshire Light Infantry, that he might have been in the 1/5th Battalion. I'll have to ask my father- who can remember Arthur in the 50s and 60s, and see what I can get. Thanks Frank Bartholomew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
