I'm doing some research into family history. I was wondering whether anyone could help identify his regiment.

Thanks

Thanks for the information. It appears that he wasn't called up. Do you have any information on George Dimbylow and Harry Tandy from West Bromwich. I'm scraping the barrel with these two, as they may have been too old to be called up, but it's worth a try.

Thanks

Thanks for the information. That might be useful to fill in a few spaces in some research into some family history I'm doing.

Another family member: Leonard Horseley. Can anyone help find out which regiment he served in?

No matches in the online MIC's with the spelling Horseley and a forename of Leonard that I can see.

There are two with the surname HORSLEY though, may help.

Horsley, Leonard

Army Service Corps

M2/222000

Horsley, Leonard

King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry

Other family members I'm working on:

Harry Parsons of West Bromwich,

Any Goldsays or possibly Coldsays of West Bromwich,

George Waring of West Bromwich,

Frederick Green of West Bromwich,

Thomas Aldhouse of West Bromwich.

I believe that many of these would have been in the forces during the Great War.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Ray
