Without a doubt Carol,I recently found that a Great Uncle of mine was killed at Passchendaele in 1917 and I would love to see a picture of him😥

You could looking at local newspapers for that period, there is usually a mention of the soldiers who lost their lives and sometimes there is a photo of them.

FindMyPast newspapers are useful for this.

Thanks Tomkin.

Carol I've tried i even signed back up the bna newspapers because a local paper come on line and I've found loads from the Lancashire regiments but not my Great Uncle,it was only by pure luck and a post i seen online mentioning his name that I was able to work it out and with the help of local genealogists we worked it all out that I found him.
