Michael Posted 17 September , 2003 Share Posted 17 September , 2003 Captain EK Harvey-James appears in the Buffs 14/15 medal roll. He embarked on 10/10/15 (F&F) and was killed in action on 15/4/17. The trouble is... I can't find him on Officers Died, CWGC or even PROCAT. 2 other officers were killed on that day, both 1st Bn Does anyone have an Army List for the period that will tell me which Battalion he was in ?

Guest Pete Wood Posted 17 September , 2003 Share Posted 17 September , 2003 Could the first initial be wrong....? There is a Captain ARTHUR KEEDWELL HARVEY JAMES on the CWGC. Put Harvey in the search engine and he's on the last page. 1st Bn The Buffs (East Kent Regiment) Died 15/04/1917 Son of Stephen and Sarah Harvey James; husband of Louie Harvey James, of 28, Holland Park, Notting Hill, London. Buried - ST. PATRICK'S CEMETERY, LOOS Grave III. A. 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted 18 September , 2003 Author Share Posted 18 September , 2003 Thats the chap. I woke up this morning and wondered why I didn't bother checking the regimental history. I took a look and it confirms what you say - the medal roll is (probably) wrong. Thanks for looking Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
