Wilfred Jones
British Army
from:Rhosymedre, Wrexham
My grandfather, Wilfred Jones served in WW1 and the family some have recollections that he fought at the Somme, but we do not know his service number or which regiment he served with.
He survived the war but did not speak about it and we have no medals or artifacts to research.
I know that he was probably only 15 at the start of the war but I know that many young men who signed up were under-age.
I have searched records but could not find my grandad. The problem is that there seems to be lots of Wilfred Joneses. How can I best find him without having to shell out large sums of money on a speculative basis. Can anyone help?
