I wonder if you can help me find any further information on my relative, Private Harry Hall, No 10224, 4th Battallion Worcester Regiment. I know he died on 30th April 1915 in Gallipoli and is mentioned on the Helles memorial. Is there any further information available.

Thank you

Hi kazzaco

His MIC says he entered the Balkans (2b) on 25.4.15 and interestingly the back of the card gives his Father's address, very unusual- Mr William Hall, 6 New St Hasbury Halesowen, with a date of 7.9.20
SDGW has this-


Name:Harry Hall

Birth Place:Hasbury, Worcs
Residence:Hasbury

Death Date:30 Apr 1915

Death Location:Gallipoli
Enlistment Location:Halesowen, Worcs

Rank:Private

Regiment:Worcestershire Regiment
Battalion:4th Battalion
Number:10224
Type of Casualty:Killed in action

Theatre of War:Balkan Theatre

Unfortunately his service records seem to have been destroyed.

Robert

Hi Kazzaco,
PTE HARRY HALL has a set of pre WW1 MILITIA PAPERS on FIND MY PAST.
He later joined a Regular Batt.of the Worcesters. All details,known information, etc. fits your man.
Nothing on WW1 service however.
