Rena, No family connection.  I am a medal collector and I research the recipients of the medals to build up a picture of his or her service.  William Ward saw service in Gallipoli and in France but he served from dysentery badly and eventually was discharged before the end of the war.   I have researched his career through the National Archives and I have attached my write up.  If you have any information on his post war life that you can share I would be grateful.  From your earlier comments and the records he returned to England shortly after the end of the war to take up farming again. I gather his father was unwell from the records.  He mentions in a letter that his health is also very poor.  I hope you find the write up.  I do try to obtain photos of the men and women whose medals I have.  You mentioned you don't have any of William Ward.  Are there any other ancestors of William Ward who may have some.  Regards

Hello there, I saw that this thread was referencing SGT William Septimus Ward, 9th and 49th Battalions, AIF with service in Gallipoli and France.  I am researching this man's military career and I am seeking any photographs that may exist to illustrate the research.  Regards
