Jay Oen Posted 13 December , 2004 Share Posted 13 December , 2004 Medal card of Jessemey, Harry Corps Regiment No Rank Royal Engineers 92 Corporal 2nd Royal Engineers T92 Corporal 2nd Above is copied from an ancestors medal card. It shows him assigned to the 92nd and the the T92nd. What does it mean? Was he assigned to another field company? If I had to guess maybe tunneling? He died Aug 1915, but no listing on GWGC? Anywhere else I could look to find him? All help is as always greatly appreciated. JAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Oen Posted 14 December , 2004 Author Share Posted 14 December , 2004 Mark.... Thanks a million!! I never thought to try a different spelling of the name, obviously you've done this before and I'm just learning. You also reference a SDGW CD. Is that something I can buy? Terry..... Thank you also for responding, but I can't figure out how to post a copy of his MIC. I'll work on it. Thanks, JAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
