Armed Forces / Re: Ron Bolus:2nd Batt, SOUTH STAFFS REGIMENT 1900-20
« on: Monday 01 September 08 20:21 BST (UK) »
Hello - Iam reseatching my Grandfather, James Taylor born Stoke? Staffordshire 1890. He was a with 2Bn South Staffordshire Regt 1914 onwards. His nickname was Lucy - short for Lucifer - as he was supposedly a "bad boy in his time"
He married Theresa Agnes O'Brien of Whittington, Lichfield in 1914 (I presume before he went to War). He had a son George. He has connections with Lichfield/Stoke/T Trentham Gardens and Manchester. I do not know how long he served or where he went when discharged -he seems to have disappeared from that time onwards.
If you or anybody else has any information or photos I would love to hear about it. I know very little about him and would dearly love to trace him or his family, or at least have some information on him. I have read your message and as you indicate that you have some history there, I wondered if he appears there at all. Many thanks for your time.
