| With the RD reference I am assuming this is 2744 C Moore 24th Regiment. Happy to be corrected if otherwise. If it is him he certainly did not fight at RD [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Belfast News-Letter - Friday 16 February 1940 SAGS no clasp [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] The Scotsman - Friday 16 February 1940 |

| Hi All, Very Confusing, C Moore number 2744 appears on the 2/24 medal roll. He is buried in Earlham Cemetery Norwich Norfolk. Aged 81 so born circa 1859/60. Now this is the confusing bit a Charles Moore born circa 1859/60 Adunisill Clones Monaghan Ireland, attested Monaghan 1 june 1880 to 65th Brigade [94th Regt] served 12 years discharged 25 march 1893. No service in South Africa, his number 2744 co-incidence maybe? but seems not to have had any previous service because of his age, being only 20 when attested. Rai Keynshamlighthorse |
