Max Posted 5 August , 2003 Author Posted 5 August , 2003 Hello Simon Thanks very much for the look up. It seems that the army was unable to spell DAUGHTRY. My GGrandfather Sam Daughtry Riding is shown on the CWGC as Samuel Dougherty Riding. Could you tell me what KIA F&F means. Many thanks again, Andy Riding
