Steve,
OK found him, he was in the 1/4th Norfolk Regiment and then the 19th Rifle Brigade not the 24th, oh well, most of the Norfolks went into the 24th so it was an educated guesss at best
His medal was returned for adjustment on 4/10/33, long time afterwards.
These territorials do muck things up a little and give you a headache sometimes, glad I do not have to research to many of them. Just waiting for Mack or young Harribobs to jump now as there was a load from the Manchesters.
Will post something for the 19th in a bit, need COFFEE!!!!!!!!!!.
PM me your e mail address and I will send you the medal roll for this gentleman.
One good thing though, the 19th left a War Diary and is about the most accurate out of all the seven Territorial Battalions. Funny though as the 19th was made up mainly of the Supernumerary T.F. Companies of the South Lancs, Loyal North Lancs, Kings Own, East Lancs, Manchester, Cheshire and West Yorkshire Regiments, The Royal Scots and the Cameronians.
Incidently, another strange quirk with these Territorials is that they have there territorial number on the rolls and then there battalion number until after the army changed its numbering system, so the later drafts just have the territorial number whereas the early members of the Battalion have both, shessh, just another complication
