    That's me, so I have that info, I am trying to find out about his time in the coal pit for theft of bread before he joined the army. But thank you for looking.

    Oh that's brilliant. He is my Great Uncle. He is in my research for the family tree. He was in the London Brigade in 1914-15 (short Service) but must have joined the Territorial Army when they formed up after WW1 as I have a photo of him as corporal and an Regimental Policeman.Something else for me to look into.

    All good fun, but I could do with not having to work so I had the time todo it. :-)

    thanks again. Steve.

    You need to be familiar with this Research Guide

    Do please bear in mind that Grandads love to tell tall tales and Chinese Whispers play their part.

    Thank you for that link it very useful.
    And I just wish my Grandad did tell his tales. My Father told me his Dad never spoke of his parents or his early years. There are only four living children of my Grandad my two Aunts and two Uncles and they know nothing much either.

    But I will get there. Thanks.

    You were looking for info to back your grandfathers story to Yorkshire up....at the same time suggest you cannot find family members on the 1911 census. I see there was 3 girls born 1881 - 1885 then WIlliam TC may I suggest you create a seperate post for that search linking it back to this
