Lance Corporal Harry van Tromp

from IWM Collections

  • 13 older comments, and then…
  • Gary Donaldson said:
    Henry van Trump appears to have been re-enlisted as 'van Tromp'. He was the only son of Henry Joseph van Trump and Elizabeth (nee Stone) of Taunton, Somerset. He had older siblings, a brother Bert, and 3 sisters, Elsie, Elizabeth and Alice. His father, Henry Joseph, a shirt and collar manufacturer of St Augustine Street, was Mayor of Taunton from 1916 to 1920. 22nd (Service) Battalion (Kensington) was formed on 11th September 1914 and went to France in November 1915.//
  • AndyBailey said:
    Presumably, from his medal ribbons, he had seen action before.
  • Gary Donaldson said:
    Overseas campaign active service at the very least. He appears to be wearing 2 or 3 ribbons, the one with the white centre may be that for the Central Africa Medal 1891-98. His service probably being at the latter end of that campaign. He would appear to have been an experienced ex-Regular soldier.//
  • Rasloff said:
    nice old picture
  • Trench-Foote said:
    Lance Corporal Henry van Tromp had a very low Regimental Service Number in 22nd Battalion - K/256 (National Archive Medal Index Card) - indicating that he re-enlisted soon after the outbreak of war in 1914 - probably as 22nd Battalion was formed.

  • Lynne&Bill said:
    Picture is of Glastonbury Abbey, and nothing to do with the Feathers in Ludlow.

    Come on Cornell. It's the Gallilee Chapel of Glastonbury Abbey, as Lynne&Bill pointed out two and a half years ago...
