can anyone identify these uniforms please
« on: Saturday 13 November 10 22:12 GMT (UK) »
I amresearching my family history and have recently come across some family photos that I was hoping you could help me with. I have no idea what regiment or year these photo’s are from, except for photo number 2.

I was hoping someone may take a look and see if you could identify them

Photo number 2 is my grand dad. He served with the Royal horse Artillery and served in both the first and second world wars, and I think this was the Hockey team maybe.
The other photos are possibly William Oakley and other family members.

I'm sorry Al, but the pics are far too titchy to make out any detail I'm afraid!!

Perhaps you could have a dekko at the hints and tips for posting on the Photo Restoration board and pop them up individually??

One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
