rmtruby Posted 11 December , 2004 Share Posted 11 December , 2004 Can anyone help with more information on Albert Burton. My uncle has asked me to find out something of this soldier. He believes that he was from the Lyndon district of West Bromwich, and served possibly in the South Staffs. Thanks Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmtruby Posted 17 December , 2004 Author Share Posted 17 December , 2004 I'll pass this onto my uncle, who's trying to find out about him. I don't think he had the army number. Is there any way of finding out which battalion he was in. Thanks Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enoch beard Posted 17 December , 2004 Share Posted 17 December , 2004 ray, its a territorial number allocated to the 5th south staffs, so he is either 1/5 or 2/5 in my opinion. for what it worth!!! enoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
