Thank you Peter

Your website to the Home Guard is fascinating and a real tribute to those shown.  I notice that there was a Capt Stabell in the 5th Btn home guard.  This could be one and the same who was a friend/colleague of and served with my grandfather in 19th in WW1. I could find out more details and get back to you if it is of interest.

Please can I ask you how you came by the photo 13 and the other photos. Sorry, just to clarify you have no knowledge of the identity of any of the 19th shown on them? Is there anything recorded on the rear of the photos.

Many thanks for sharing and helping me.

Kind regards

Dear Peterhastie,

Thank you so much for posting the four photos of members of 19th NF.

It was a real surprise to see No 13 as I have this photo myself and recognised it immediately. The very youthful looking 2nd Lt sitting in the centre middle row is my grandfather James I Willis.  He was with the battalion thoroughout the war and luckily came home.   

Are you related to anyone in the photos or can you ID anyone else for me?

Thanks very much
