2nd Lt. Robert Newman Hall
British Army 3rd Btn. Cheshire Regiment
from:Halton, Runcorn, Cheshire
My father-in-law, Robert Hall, served with the Cheshire Regiment in WW1. He served in France, was gassed and suffered shrapnel wounds. He was invalided home and whilst in hospital was volunteered into the R.F.C.
His training was at Drome Airfield, Montrose, Argyll, Scotland. He was there during 1918/1919. Peace was declared before his training to become a pilot was completed, therefore, he never received his wings. His rank was 2nd Lieutenant. His home address was Halton, Runcorn, Cheshire.
Unfortunately, we do not have his service number. However 100/FC/4?3 is listed on his certificate as fit to train for a pilot. This also states 3rd Cheshire Regiment.
If you have any information on Robert I would be delighted to receive it. I have been engaged in the family genealogy for some years now but to date have drawn a blank on Robert's war record.
