S/Sgt. John Crawshaw
British Army Army Veterinary Corps
from:Messes St Shoeing Forge, Wigan
John Crawshaw was my great uncle. The only details of his war service that I have found were in his medal roll record where it states that he served abroad after 1st of Jan 1916 and was awarded the British War and Victory Medals. His name was mis-spelt as Crawshore. If anyone has any further info, I would be glad to receive it.
TT/01742(6) Staff Sergeant John Crawshaw served with the Army Veterinary Corps during WW1.
Editor's Note: Unfortunately with so many AVC personnel at multiple levels in Divisions, Base Depots and Hospitals it would be almost impossible to trace an individual without more detailed information of where an individual served. All current searches are inconclusive.
