Family History Beginners Board / Re: WW1 Hugh Galt

Hugh GALT (1880-1915) was my paternal grandmother Mary's younger brother, so he is my great uncle too. Her gravestone is located in St Maurs churchyard. Kilmaurs.
The Stewarton Historical Society has helped me with gathering some more background information, including his death 100 years ago in the Battle of Loos.
I am making a personal visit to Loos on the centenary of Hugh's death, 25th September 2015.
It would be most interesting to see a copy of his Soldier's Will, as I have managed to access a couple of Hugh's military service records through the Ancestry website.
I look forward to seeing your reply.
