Hi,

Can anyone out there point me in the right direction? I am trying to find out what medals (if any) my Grandad was awarded during his time in the Cheshire Regiment. I have his army number and his army record book but there is no mention of his medals. My dad tells me he had about 8 medals from his time in WW1 and I know he served in India during this time. Where would I start and would I be able to get replicas of his medals?????

Many thanks

Karen
