I'm going to Eskra Thursday next to have a search around the graveyard for another researcher. Would you like me to do the same for you. Eskra Chapel and the adjoining graveyard is only 6 miles from me.

Hi Annie & Kev

Many thanks for your help so far,  It's much appreciated.

Kev.
The William in 1914 is a different lot. I have his attestation papers, I went down the wrong line initially at the start. So if you know of anyone researching this William they can have his papers for free. I've got papers for a couple of more William  Penningtons as well. I'll dig them out and put them on here, somebody could be researching them.

I've got a birth cert for a William Pennington]DOB 6/12/1894 Orrell
 Father... Malachi Pennington. Mother Jane (Winstanley) Free to a good home..

Annie.
Thats is my family in the 1901 census.  I have all the census from 1871/81/91/1901. I have also all the BDM of Williams siblings and most of their children's BDM's and lots of other details.

If you's can advise me how I can get Williams army number and papers that would be a great help.

Many thanks for your help

Many thanks for all that information. I was of the opinion that they had a cushy time in India during WW1. How wrong I was.
Would they have been given campaign medals while they were there. If I can get his full number I could work from there.

Once again thanks

Regards

The family tree research has been on the back burner for a while. With new grandchildren, house renovations, retirement from work and computer upgrades I've been busy.

This what I have...............

I have a copy (poor copy) of a course he attended in 1916. as follows........

7/12/1916
Signals & Dispatch Riders Course

1st Battalion South Lancs Regiment

QUETTA.... India

Lance-Corporal. W Pennington. His regimental  number is partly obscured by a crease in the paper, all I can make out is 2? 9924

I have his married cert as follows.........

Wigan
Profession.Soldier

Thats all I have

Regards

Use the web space that comes with your ISP. Upload them onto the internet. You don't have to design a webpage, you can just leave them there for keeps sake.

Somebody gave me a tip several years ago regarding inkjet printing.
Always use inkjet paper that has the same dots per inch (DPI) as the printer. That way you get a perfect match.
If there is no DPI written on the packaging of the paper your buying, then don't buy it.
Buy Epsom paper and you should have a perfect match.
I buy my paper from........ www.ink2paper.com. 220 gram+ Its got all the ranges of DPI.

Hope this helps
