Guest Tippman Posted 14 March , 2006 Share Posted 14 March , 2006 I have the following info: Probably Royal Irish Regiment, definitely in the BEF. Awarded DCM, DSO and other medals. Fought in Boer war also. I remember seeing papers as a kid and would like to find out more. Some passages in those papers had extracts from MiD's as well. He retired as Warrant Officer for Clonmel, Co. Tipperary, Ireland. I would be grateful if anyone has come across his name and details. Thanks a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 14 March , 2006 Share Posted 14 March , 2006 Doesn't appear to be anyone of that name in the DSO Book by O'Moore Creagh and Humphris, so I guess that means he didn't get a DSO before or during the Great War. Also not in Who's Who. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 14 March , 2006 Share Posted 14 March , 2006 Just remembered a little volume I bought whilst on holiday in Ireland few years ago - "A biographical dictionary of Tipperary". I'm afraid there are only 2 Slatterys listed - one was the Most Reverend Michael Slattery, born in 1782; the other a John Slattery, 7764 2nd R Ir Rifles, died 7.7.16. No joy there, either, then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
