WW1 - men born or connected with the Poole/Bournemouth Area

[jenup]

Hi Morten,

My GrGrandad serviced as a Private in the Dorsetshire Army Regiment. He did not talk about the war often & nor do my family, but the little info I have gleaned from them has been that he did serve at the Battle of the Somme & at some time became a prisioner of war.

 I have found his medal roll index card but nothing else at the moment.

Regards

jen

Hi Morten

No I've not been researching the names on that plaque but have been helping a friend who is connected to the Watmore family that married into the Arnolds and were in Hamworthy by 1851.
Have sent you PM with details of what I know about Tom Harold.

Spiderboy.

Thanks Spiderboy. PM received & good to see the Dorset Cross alongside the Wessex Wyvern.
