It might have been as much as 3 or 4 months before it appeared in the Gazette. The War Diary for his battalion MIGHT mention it. |

I'm not sure of the answer to your question but there are WW1 Medal Rolls on Ancestry. Have you checked to see if he is on there? If you want to give his name I can check for you. Not sure if it will give a date or not. |

My father-in-law won the MM for bravery in WW1. |
