Good morning everyone, Further research from the Corporation of London Records Office of my great uncle with the City of London Imperial Volunteers (service number 1159) and who was granted the City of London Freedom (no. 522) as were all members of the City Imperial Volunteers, shows that he was a member of the 2nd.
