..... try and find his service or Regimental Number, also confirm that the Essex was his and not just a family rumour or hand me down. Get his full name, confirm it, see if anyone matches with that. Many men were enlisted at regimental depots and then turned out/shipped for duty as Riflemen, Pioneers and etc. with completely different Regt's. Good hunting, Bob |
