Major Benjamin William Aston
British Army Devonshire Regiment
I'm looking for information on my grandfather, Benjamin Aston. I have found information on him during 1936 as being in the Territorial Devonshire Regiment. I know he became a Major during the war. I don't think he left this country. I know he was in the Army Corps at Oxford University and cadets at his private school. He moved to Glasgow after the war. I know he met my Gran or, so were told, as she was his driver later on in the war. Her name was Mary, or Molly Sprague or Cumming - she was born in Africa which is slowing her research. Anything on these guys would be amazing as I'm coming against a brick wall.
