220518 Pte. Alexander Norman McEwan British Army 9th Btn. Seaforth Highlanders from:Belfast, N.Ireland Alexander McEwan served with the Seaforth Highlanders I've been trying to locate my father's service record for some time without success. However, I found his Medal Roll Index Card. He was 16 years old in 1915 when he enlisted. My older sister thought he was in the 9th Battalion Seaforth Highlanders. However, he played football in the war and his football medal is engraved "Ripon Garrison Association Cup Competition". He also had a "On War Service Badge" dated 1915 which was usually given to a civilian, unless it wasn't his. I have checked the roll call of names of ALL Seaforth Highlander Battalions but his name is not there. The number on the "On War Service Badge" is 92635. His father was Scottish - hence his enlistment in a Scottish Regiment.
