WWI - Which Regiment, please?

[SmallTownGirl]

Thanks bb.

Going to try to find his first marriage cert because, as it was 1918, he might still have been enlisted and it might hold a clue.

Will be back when I have more info.

Thanks one and all for your help so far.

Well yes indeed it would, but there are umpteen John Rowlinson's and no particular indication of which one of 'em is the one I'm after.

Let's just wait a few days and see if I can locate his first marriage cert.

Good evening,

If this is indeed post 1920 then his records will be with the MOD.

This means you can at least eliminate any one with that name who left the army before 1920.

Hi, in my humble opinion this is most definately post Great war, as John915 says if post 1920 (which I suspect it definately is) then records would be with the MOD.
Regards always,

Until I can get out and about and try to find his first marriage, I've scanned the photo from his second marriage in 1930, just in case that helps with dating etc..  He's second from the left.
