Andrew Newton Haig 4380 King's Own Scottish Borderers 1/4th Battalion
« on: Saturday 16 August 25 15:46 BST (UK) »
A few years ago, I discovered that my mother (possibly unbeknown to her) had a cousin who was killed in Gallipoli; and I posted details about him in
https://www.everyoneremembered.org/profiles/soldier/694046/ and
https://livesofthefirstworldwar.iwm.org.uk/lifestory/1514779

In both of the sites, I included a rather hazy photo of Andrew. For the life of me, I cannot remember from where I obtained this photo! Can anyone suggest a likely place, please?

Thank you. Now I have to try to think which newspaper! Trouble with me and family history, I have rarely made notes of from where I have found things!
