Hi all,
I am researching my GGF William Jefferson, can anyone help? It's an amazing story I'm sure; joined the ASC in 1889, served in Ireland, married in Dublin 1893, S Africa Nov 99 - Jul 02 I think as a Blacksmith (Cold Shoeing Course 1893) attached to the York's Regt, discharged to reserves Aug 02, joined the RFC Sept 1914 to Apr 1920, traded as a Blacksmith. I've got the outline but am struggling with the locations he served and clasps awarded in S Africa and WW1.
If anyone is able to assist in either a amateur or professional capacity I would be very grateful. I also have a GF who served in the MG Corps WW1 who I am also currently looking into.
Many thanks,
AllanG
