Re: Looking for relatives of a good man
Please hold on to them until you have absolute proof of identity, I do have a William Taylor in my family but I’m not aware of his Service during the first war at this time. The unfortunately this is one of those situations where there will be a number of claimants.
My William Taylor was my Great, Great Grandfather. I am current looking for five set’s of Medals from the first war. |
Re: Looking for relatives of a good man
Just Checked the information I do have and I’m sorry to say it’s not my direct relative. Although I have no doubt that there would be cousins.
Chris, thank you anyway……this offer shows the measure of your understanding and respect for this mans service. I wish you every success in finding a living relative. Good Luck. |
