Hi all and thanks for letting me join the forum.

I recently came into possession of a badge belonging to my Grandfather John O'Neill. John served in WW1 with the Leinster Regiment and the Labour Corps.
John lived in the Rhondda Valley in South Wales.

The medal reads "Old Contemptibles Of Wales Association" Aug - Nov 1914
On the reverse it reads Reg No: 824652 and 193

I have done some investigating and see that there are a number of branches of this association. Ideally if possible I would like to know which branch he was involved with and then contact them to see if they have any photos of past members.
Any assistance/pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
