Welsh Guards
Chaps, i'm after a favour. I have two regimental numbers i would like checking if possible. 1932 and 848535, these numbers are on the sliders of two Welsh Guards leeks.
Many thanks Andy

Hi Andy
Dudley-Ward's "History of the Welsh Guards", available as an on-line pdf: http://www.ww1photos.com/PDF_HistoryWelshGuards.html is supposed to have the numbers of all who served in WW1 and I can't find the number there either. Beware, there are about 75 pages and I went through it three times - amazing what CV19 lock-in can do! The book is well worth the read. Bill

According to Paul Nixon:
https://armyservicenumbers.blogspot....sh-guards.html he would have joined up between August 4th and September 25th 1915. Bill

Interestingly, WO329 shows 1930 Guardsman Aneurin Williams 1st WG and then 1933 Guardsman Thomas B Daniel 1st WG, no 1931 or 1932.

848535 would seem odd for that regiment, rather to high prior to 1920 and then does not fit into the regiments block from 2730001
