Hi

[Colthelad]

I would just like to say hello, I have just joined the site and will be trying find more information on two WW1 soldiers.

Any help is appreciated.

Pte William Bauld Cameron Highlanders MIA at Polygone Wood.
Pte John Bauld Seaforth Highlanders died of wounds 21 May 1917 buried n Etaples Military Cemetery.

Both brothers who gave their best. Trying to find any info on them for family research.

Thanks,

Col.

FindMyPast has another record with the additional information ""Residence - Hill of Beach, Fifeshire; Enlistment place - Dunfermline"

I think that should read "Hill of Beath"?
