If he were in the Great war you may be able to find a medal card for him on National Archives documents on line. As for the rest of the info - fraid none of us will know unless we are related to him! Have you tried searching in the trees on here? Have you asked every living rellie if they know anything? Failing that, its a trawl through the complete bmd index which you can do free on ancestry. Long old job though. |
