| Hi Littlehand I can only find 4 E. Martin's listed on the Medal Roll, they are: Ordinary Seaman E. Martin Private E. Martin, 1st King's Dragoon Guards Private E. Martin, 60th Rifles Lieutenant Evelyn Charles Martin, 87th (Royal Irish) Fusiliers, Commissariat and Transport Department. So we may have a possible match with Private E. Martin, 1st King's Dragoon Guards. More research needed. |
