hi Gortonboy,Thank you very much for quick reply keeping searching after i posted i found on Find my Past' without any payment this.

Owen Cavanagh this is a wrong Spelling should have been with a    K.

Number 6171  Loyal North Lancashire Regiment  47TH and 81ST  FOOT.

Now i need to find out where they served he would have possibly been in Military Hospital at Netley with his EYE WOUND   near Southampton.   Thank You .

All his records are on Ancestry. It makes interesting reading as it tells how an injury was sustained.
