Hi

Hope someone with SDGW can help.Im trying to see if this is the same soldier.Pte Rowland Fishwick 267020 and 29922 listed as 6th btn West Ridings.His NOK should read Whittington (Lancs) or thereabouts (hopefully!!)Its an uncommon name with two entries on NA.

Thanks v much.

I have SDGW in book form for the Duke of Wellington’s West Riding Regiment only.

It lists: 1st 6th Battalion.

Fishwick Roland. Born Hutton Roof, Lancs. Enlisted Skipton Yorks. (Barnoldswick, Yorks.) 267020, Pte., KIA. F&F. 10/4/17.

The brackets indicate place of residence.

Tony.
