Hello, Jonathan
Please could you look up my Great Grandad. I know he went AWOL, I believe, when he was in France. Family rumour has it that he was in the Army but went AWOL to join the Navy. He ended up marrying my great grandmother whilst he was AWOL. And after a few weeks of married life joined back up with the Army.
His name was Sidney James Griffiths (although he was born Mottram).
Here's hoping.

Kind Regards
Rachel
