wow ! That was quick , Thank you treetotal , I have his name George Thomas , I think he started off in the 8th regiment royal welsh fusiliers , he died at ypres and his name is on the menin gate memorial , he died I think on the 2nd of march , his number was 15680, im thinking of trying to see if I can get his war record but it might of been destroyed in the second world war , I know when he was married but was hoping it would tell me where he was born and his age , that part of the family are all but gone now , no-one to ask , my gran re-married in 1919 and left his photos etc at the old house ( he was a bit of a bad lad) tho he wrote a letter from the trenches to apologise , but I have no idea if my gran wrote back to him , tho she was a very gentle lady , I have no idea of his life before they married , but I think he might of signed up at porth south wales , any help would be appreciated been searching for years
