Hi there
I am trying to find more information on "Bro J DAVIDSON".
I have his Attendance Jewel dated July 1 1903. Birmingham Lodge XI.
The Jewel came with medals to "John Davidson" from the Boer War, where he served with New Zealand Troops and from WW I when he served with South African Troops. This John Davidson was born in New Zealand.
I suspect that the Jewel was John Davison's father's - John Davidson (NZ) would not have been in Birmingham long enough (if ever) to warrant the award of the jewel. What length of time was required to win the award ?
Is there any way of contacting the Lodge XI, if indeed it still exists? And, of course, any possible info for the Birmingham J. Davidson.
Any assistance or pointers greatly appreciated.
Regards
Graeme McLeod
