His death cert is here. You can pay for a digital copy I believe

his medal index card says died 9th April 1918  

he won the military cross for his actions on that day

so if his grave says  9th June ?????

IT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED

HI CHARLIE

just an update on index cards we could not find 

i have found a lot more under R W F 

and even 2 under WELSH GUARDS

and when you get them they are clearly marked 18TH  WELSH

so the IRCC index system is a bit of a lucky dip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i doubt I  will  ever find them all with their index system ?????????

regards

trevor

have now found nearly all of the 264 soldiers p o w returns on the weekly paper lists and IRCC R sheets

apart from the elusive Sgt Alexander Johnston

cant see any missing lists or p o w returns for him

with either the Welsh or the R W F

so give up on him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
