Private John Henry Evans
British Army 2nd Btn. Royal West Kent Regiment
from:Bromley, Kent
John Henry Evans was my Grandfather but I never knew him as he died in 1935, many years before I was born. I have just found out that he was a member of the 2nd Battalion, The Royal West Kent Regiment with the release of the 1911 Military Census records and in 1911 he was based in Peshawar, India. My grandparents married at the start of WW1 while he was still a serving soldier with the 2nd Battalion, but sadly after having 5 children they both died young leaving the children orphans. If anyone has a picture of the 2nd Battalion The Royal West Kent from 1900 to the end of WW1 I would be eternally grateful as it may show my grandfather, no photo's have survived to be passed down to us.
