Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help a family link I only learnt about yesterday?
I've always known my grandfather (Pvt E H Sandon) served in the Worcs regiment during the First World War, however, yesterday I found out that my maternal great-grandfather also served in the Worcs regiment during the First World War and it got me thinking about whether they were in the same battalion and knew of each other?
Maternal great-grandfather was CSM T Colleran, I know he had the Mons Star and Silver War badge, I also know he was invalided out at some point due to wounds. I think he was in the 3rd Battalion.
How would I be able to progress this investigation, is an enquiry to the Regimental Museum my best bet?
Thanks & regards, Mark.
