Hello All,

This seemed like as good a place as any to post my enquiry, So....

My name is Sarah Brown (i'm new to the forum) and I am the great grand daughter of Ernest Percy Brown (20 Jan 1895 - 09 Feb 1968), L/197, Accrington and Burnley Howitzer Bde. According to his service record (which I have a copy of, but it's blurry) he joined whilst living with his father William Brown at 72 Westwood Rd, 15 Feb 1915. Under the campaign section of his service record it's written "France 6-17-18".

I have his medal (with no ribbon) but would love to know as much as possible about him and if possible perhaps someone might have a picture of him in uniform (my dad would love this)I thought it's worth a try. So please get in touch if you have any information about him.

Thanks in advance

Sarah
