World War One / Re: Loyal North Lancashire Regiment
« on: Saturday 24 January 09 01:39 GMT (UK) »
Hello,
I am trying to track down my great, great grandfather, who served in the Loyal North Lancs in the First World War. However, all I know of him is that his surname was Owen and that he lost a lung in a gas attack (the Somme, we think). We also think he was Welsh, although there is some doubt about this; he spent the rest of his life in Bolton.
Not much to go on, I know, but worth a shot...
