Title: A Lancashire Fusilier Bugler ww2
Post by: crazylibrarian on Tuesday 06 November 12 16:53 GMT (UK)

hi all - this is a very long shot!   I am trying to find information on a Lancashire Fusilier Bugler who was stationed at Rufford Abbey, Nottinghamshire between 1941-43 possibly 1/5th Battalion.  whether he survived the war or not?

name: Albert Stockham
Born: 1909 Yorkshire
1911 census - radcliffe, Bury Lancashire
mother: Lizzie Stockham nee Etheridge

nothing more I'm afraid

thank you

Angela

There is noone of that name on the War Graves  Commission register for WW2.

thank you for that.  I will have to assume he survived the war then.  It's going to be a bit of a wait until MOD release service records for ww2.

Thank you again
