It's funny what turns up when you are researching your family tree, now this chap is related to my grandmother on my fathers side.
His medal resides in the IWM in Lambeth

Great piece of history Tab,Thumbs%20Up   I have a similar one somewhere (VC also).
 
Rather distant in the family tree, he was a cousin of the Dransfields pictured above, who in turn were my cousins.  It's amazing what dabbling in family history brings out of the woodwork Big%20smile
