Hello, I'm trying to find the Manchester Regt. battalion my father was assigned to in 1917-1918. I have downloaded his medal card which indicates: TRAVIS William, Manch Regt, Pte, Regt No.57060. Medals Victory and British, roll H/1/104B26, page5327. His discharge certificate shows he was called up 21 March 1917 assigned Training Reserve Battalion. Discharged 13 December 1919 from the Manchester Regt. (No battalion indicated). Living in Los Angeles makes it difficult for me to pop down to the National Archives myself to look up the pertinent medal rolls. I will be very grateful if someone going to the archives would look up the info and e-mail me at gordontravis@sbcglobal .net p.s. I recentlly obtained a newspaper clipping from the Oldham Chronicle dated September 12, 1918 listing the death of his brother Lance-corporal Henry Travis 1/7 Manchesters KIA 2 September 1918. It also states his brother William Travis, Manchester Regt, is a prisoner in Germany. Another brother, Robert, Kings Own Royal Lancs, has been on active service three years. p.p.s. As if that was not enough, William re-enlisted 15 December 1939 in the Royal Warwickshire Regt 12th OD (Overseas Defence) Battalion comprising WW1 verterans aged 31-51. Evacuated 17th June 1940 from St Malo France without a scatch only to be injured laying decoy fires aound Rotherham and Sheffield during the Blitz.
