Guest David Green Posted 1 December , 2005 Share Posted 1 December , 2005 I am trying to trace my Grandfather's war history. I know that he served in the Kings own Royal Lancs on the front line until the end of the Great War, but he spoke very little about his war service, and he is now sadly dead. His name was Thomas Ivor Wyatt. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. David Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteg Posted 2 December , 2005 Share Posted 2 December , 2005 David, An e-mail to the Kings Own museum (or better still a visit) should get you started. They are very good there and quick to reply.
