Hi . Found a wwi serviceman that might be related but only know basic details . His name is George a glover. Service no 10900  2 nd bat royal Scots fusiliers  d company . There is only a medal card for him but no service records surviving. Even the town he came from would be a big help

Hi is there anybody that can help with a photo I chanced upon but cannot enhance, I have the site address. if possible would love to see it enhanced. The site I found it on is http://pipesforfreed...s Fusiliers.htm and the photo is of a company of fusiliers and under the photo is written 'The Depot, Churchill Barracks, Ayr. The photo link is as follows  http://pipesforfreed...epotRSF-Ayr.jpg  The reason I would like it enhanced is that I am trying to find photos of my late father who died when I was a baby and he served with the RSF 2nd Battalion but did serve at the depot in Ayr.  One of the fusiliers does look like a possible match which makes me think it may not be the 11th Battalion in the photo. Any assistance would be great. Thanks Andy
