Hi Barbara and Welcome to RootsChat!

I'm not really into WW2 but I did find this ..... don't know if it's much help but every little bit is a baby step forward!! :) I can't find a camp of that name in Chester !


212 (13th West Lancashire) Battery at Aigburth  Liverpool 
conversion of 354 Fd Battery -  renumbered ca. July 1938 as 212 (27th West Lancashire) Battery

PS If by any chance you know any names of his officers - this may help! - if you can trace the officers - sometimes you can trace the men!!

I just noticed from your other posting - George found the real name !! ::)

Saighton Camp Chester - so now maybe we'll be able to find something!
