  • WW1 record check if possible please

    Hi folks
    May I throw a really difficult one for me to solve that of a Soldier in WW1 and to locate his service record.

    I have checked all the Ancestry WW1 searches and located the person I am looking for in the WW1 Medal Rolls and it fits perfectly but further searches for WW1 have found nothing.

    I realize that any search involves time and I would really appeciate if anyone could check out further WW1records on the web please...the details are as follows
    Charles James Williams
    Born July 1889, unknown location
    1914 was living in Stanford Hill, London it is beleived
    He enlisted with the Royal Field Artillary
    His servise number was 61933
    He became a Cpl.

    Thanks so much in advance
    Tony Palmer

    Unfortunately not all WW1 service records have survived. Yours might just be one of the unlucky ones.

    Did he survive the war?

      You mentioned he was living in Stamford Hill in 1914...do you know any more about that?
      Not sure what else you know about him - there are these two births for example for
      a Charles James...before July, 1889 though -
      Mar 1889
      Williams Charles James Holborn 1b 825
      Jun 1889
      Williams Charles James Bedwelty 11a 115

          Hi Tony - I used to live in Stamford Hill as a child...wonder what road he lived in? Mind you, he was a tad older than me!
