Charles W Hackman MM

Pte 40673 1/1st Bn Cambridgeshire Regiment

Pte 40673 Suffolk Regiment

Pte 26825 Northamptonshire Regiment

I've just found him in the London Gazette, dated 13/05/1919, where he is listed as being awarded the Miltary Medal.

It also states he's from Watford but I don't know if this is the one in Hertfordshire or Northamptonshire. If it's Hertfordshire then he maybe a relative as my grandfather had a cousin Charles William Hackman.

Is anyone able to help in identifying him or possibly have any information about the action for which he was awarded the medal.

Hangleton,

That's my grandfather's cousin who was born on 22 June 1890.

The 1901 census has him with his grandfather Thomas William Hackman at 5 Grove Cottages, Falconer Road, Bushey, Hertfordshire.
