Hi Jonathon, I realise that you are getting many requests for lookups but I wondered if I could request this one again. My great uncle John Joseph Sloan was in WW1 but I'm not sure which regiment. He served in France but I don't think he survived the war as I can't find him afterwards. I have found a John Sloan that was shot at dawn and got his cour martial papers which did not contain any personal info so I do not know if he is mine. My John was born in cumbria but Lived in Durham and would have been around 42yrs. Are you able to find any more info on the one who was shot? Many thnaks Cass

Hi Jonathan

I seem to have lost my Great Grandfather Harry WRIGHT. He served with the Army Service Corps in WW1, his regimental number is T/328310.

Would you mind seeing if he is on the list for prisoners/executions

Kindest regards

Rob
