Hi
I have been happily reading about Harold Stanley's family history, somebody else's hard work.
William Fisher was my grandmother's, Alice Stanley's step-grandfather.
I believe he moved with the Walsh family to Australia and died there too. Don't know where.
Would anybody be able to solve the mystery of my grandfather's military service. He was conscripted in 1916, as many of the labourers were. I believe he was in the Labour Corp's, his work was to drive the donkey carts to the front line with armaments,bring wounded back. Also dig the trenches, hence his nickname Digger, our pet name for him was Dig.
Regards
M Stanley
