His medals were sold at auction on 18 Mar 2022 , wrongly listed as PTE E.N. PARRISH .

Default Medals and badges

Interesting as to why the medals to 57287 Ernest W. PARRISH, Prince of Wales West Yorks. Regt. were sold with two East Yorkshire cap badges, without the medals having been named it would be easy to attribute the man to have served in the East Yorks.
