Michael Locke - Royal Engineers

[josie7644]

Hello,

On the documentsonline site, I've just found the medal card for Michael Locke in WW1.

http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/...asp?Edoc_Id=3886160&queryType=1&resultcount=2

A search on Anc* reveals nothing about this discovery!

Any ideas where I could find more info on Michael?

Many thanks,

Josie

Hello Braveheart,

Thank you very much for replying. I have just joined the site you recommended and I'm now waiting for the administrator's approval.

I was wondering whether Michael was my granddad, so hopefully a member of the site will be able to verify whether or not he is!

Thanks again!

Josie
