Thanks and sorry I thought I had responded to this .... John did indeed do his training at Fulwood Barracks Preston . he was with the North Lancs and transferd to The East Lancs.
He died in Poona India in 1904 If memory serves me right he died from cholera. His parents were left about £3.60 of wages /personal effects.
