    His MIC shows that he was Corporal 12L/5950 12th Lancers. Commissioned 12th Lrs. 28.10.1915. Then 2nd Lieut in the Gloucestershire Regiment.

    Date of entry into theatre of war 15.8.1914.
  • Denise Jackson said:
    Alfred was born in 1884 in Didbrook. The 1891 census shows him aged 6 living with his parents and 9 siblings aged between 12 and 4 months. They were living at the School House where Alfred Snr described himself as "Organist and sometime [Engine] Proprietor" and his wife Mary was Schoolmistress.

    By the 1911 census Alfred was a Lance Corporal stationed in Egypt/Sierra Leone/South Africa/Sudan.

    His family still lived in Didbrook. HIs parents had been married for 37 years and of their 15 children, 3 had died. Only 4 daughters were at home on census night and the 2 eldest girls were assistant teachers, whilst their mother was now Headmistress.
