Can you help with info re JACK WALKER, born in Denaby Main, South Yorkshire c 1897, son of John and Elizabeth. He had brothers named George, Thomas and William and a sister called Alice, and probably more siblings. Last known address was 18, Marr Street in Denaby. Jack served in the Duke of Wellington's West Riding Regiment, and was posted to Egypt about 1927? If you have any more info, PLEASE get in touch. Many thanks, Michael.
