The information I have so far is: -Born in 1884 -Served 1914-1920 -Royal Field Artillery, Machine Gunner #14810 -Royal Defense Corps, Machine Gunner #84377 (I believe those numbers may be Regiment numbers?) -Also found the number WO 372/11 for him, but when I search it, I get someone else -Family stories say he rode a camel in the British Calvary -Married to Isabelle Stone Brown -2 Daughters: Elizabeth M & Dorothy J -I believe his family resided in Jamestown and/or Alexandria during his enlistment I would love to find more information on his service, for example what theater he fought in, verification on his regiment, etc. I've tried everything I could think of through Google, this site, and the National Archives, but feel I am at a dead end on my own. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
