A big ask! Can anyone help me to trace a group photo of my Great Uncle and his comrades which I remember seeing as a child and this is now sadly lost to my family due to extenuating circumstances. My Great Uncle died a month after his 19th birthday in France, i have his soldiers will and his details via the C.W.G.C. his name is also on the Cenotaph in Wellington Square in Ayr and the family lived at #8 Craigmiller Building in Ayr at this time. Needless to say, we would be very greatful for any help or advice with this search. Please find all details below.
