| Hi All Again, all your suggestions are most welcome with this surname. In D.R. Forsyth's Medal Roll, he lists him as J. Bosman, but I am not convinced. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Graves,
50th Brigade so you looking at either of the Middlesex Regiments: 57th (West) Middlesex or the 77th (East) Middlesex. Given that there were only a few 77th other ranks there as soldier-servants, I'd check the Muster Rolls of the 57th for that Brigade number.

Unfortunately I do not have access to the Muster Rolls for the 57th, that will have to wait until my lottery numbers come in. :lol!:

| Graves,
We all have access to the 57th Pay & Muster roll as it is held at The National Archives, or is it the train journey you need the Lottery win for?

| Hi Kwajimu1879
Petrol, train or bus and an overnight stay would need to be paid for, so the lottery win would sort that one out. And I forgot another cost, having to take the wife shopping in London, now that would have to come from the lottery funding :lol!:
