Hi, Fred Pearson is my grand-uncle. He served in the Army Service Corps from 1893 until 1919 with a few breaks in between and was a Staff/Sargt when he finished. I have all his service records, birth, marriage and death certs but what I am interested in finding is a photo. I realise that old photos get thrown away but I am hoping there may be some out there.
Although he was born in Cheshire in 1871 he moved to Rochdale as a child and, when not serving in South Africa or France, lived his life in Rochdale. He married Edith Howarth in 1898 and they had two kids Harry (1905) and Freda (1911).
I know this request is a long shot but if you don't asak you don't find out eh!
Cheers, Bob Pearson
