The 5 guys who seem to have done the military service are :-

Cecil, Hylton, Noel Henry(RAF number 406706),Marshall and Harold.

Spot on Mark - you got a bullseye:
The names definitely tie up. Some are quoted in the attachment I first posted - taken from the 'Christleton Great War Stories' booklet. It says - 1911 Survey: Frederick 50 - joiner (born in Chester) so it must be his Special Constabulary medal. Wife Frances 47. they had 10 Children, of whom 10 were living. Living at home were: Cecil 20, Harold 23 (bricklayer), Noel Henry 18 (joiner), Frances (dressmaker at Co-op stores), Hylton 14, Amy 12, Evelyn 10 (who married Brian Hickey, the rectors son in 1927)

Cecil - Cheshire Yeo & KSLI you have provided full details of - fantastic!
Harold - RGA
Marshall - RE
Noel Henry - RFC / RAF - good to add his number - 406706 - thank you!
Hylton - RAF (possibly 26539).

All ties up - you have found the right (Wright) family

Does the family tree you found for Noel bring up anything else of interest please?

Sincere thanks
Mike
