I am at a loss perhaps you can help me..A relative of mine William Thomas (middle name Henry but rarely used) born about 1889 Liverpool last address in 1914 was 81a Barndale RD Mossley Hill Liverpool.was killed in WW1 he served in the Kings(Liverpool) reg.Battalion unknown BUT could have been the 18th as his brother Edward Walter Thomas served in the 18thBn and was killed 11th Feb 1916 France aged 22(Re CWCG on line) Mother of both was Mary Ann(Annie) Thomas, Father was Edward Thomas (died 1902).
Edwards Army record stated his next of kin was William Thomas so I assume William would have said Edward Thomas was next of kin..Street directory of 81a Barndale rd says householder was Annie Thomas.for years 1914,1918-23
William's Army record must have been lost in ww2 Medal records has a William Thomas and number ..but no address Can you Please help.
Thank you
