Sorry Milly,
re: 1891 census entry.  I meant of course Margaret and Annie not Ellen and Catherine.  I haven't really had time to get into it properly the last few days hence a few mistakes along the way.

Yes it does look promising doesn't it?  Although I am still concerned by the BMD entry for George Andrew Grady rather than Coady.

I agree with Emms - what would be great would to find some service papers of some kind. It sounds like the researchers have have identified his mother as Annie - I wonder where they got that from?

Hi

There is a medal card for a George A Grady with the right service numbers and regiments.  So it looks like Grady's right.

Can't see a service record at a quick glance.

No more details.  The CWGC told me when I rang them re another serviceman that the detaoils given apart from service records are what they could obtain from relatives after the war.  So an address may be a later address or the address of or given by a relative.

Maybe Liverpool is the place to look.  Also the regiments or Kew if there's a diary.

Best wishes
