Hello. I have a little bit of information, to get you started.

Jarvis Chew, died on 29-07-1918. and is buried, but only remembered on a wall at Birmingham (Key Hill) Cemetary.

If you go to the Commonwealth War Graves site and enter his details, it will pull up some information on him and the Military hospital.

His medal card is unusually blank, regarding his entitlement, but it does state that his widow applied for his medals and has her address as
2 Kent ??, Lodge Road, Hockley, Birmingham.

I don't know if this is a relative but i have a picture of an, Arthur H Chew
2nd Worc Reg, who goes on to have an illustrious army Career.

copy and paste the above into your address bar. just replace * with forward slashes.

Good luck.
John.
