Guest mruk Posted 16 November , 2006 Share Posted 16 November , 2006 Hello Anthony, The quick answer is no, although I did have a quick look for 10th West Yorkshire men, and found a couple of possibilities. Your post is just the kick start I probably need, though I think I'll put it on a backburner for a while until I've made some progress with other research. Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mruk Posted 16 November , 2006 Share Posted 16 November , 2006 Thanks for this Andrew, I'd not even considered the lads who might have died in the later war. I'm going to have to rethink my whole strategy and approach now. Kind Regards, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
