hi jim
you say you have narrowed it down to 6 possible men, married with South Australian addresses, but i come up with this list
378 McLEOD, Alexander
2819 McLEOD, John George
645 McLEOD, Norman
6796 McLEOD, Norman Love
i think he is infantry and i think its an early war pic so i have narrowed it down to the bottom 2. both early infantry.
the only thing is both these chaps were 29yrs on enlistment but your chap looks older?
national archives service record for 645 mcleod says he wasnt married but then an entry made later to say he is.
bc
this chap has a child but enlisted 1916?
