Hi Sheila
I have the 1911 census It is the James Russell Iam looking for .
James jioned G company 2nd Battalion Monmouthshire Regimemt .He was mobilised on 4th November 1914 & landed @ Le Havre France on 7th November 1914.He was wounded 2 or 3 times ,After recovery & recuperation was posted 2nd line Battalion -2/2 Monmouths based in Suffolk .Met his second wife in Norwich, they married @ Norwich on 1st July 1916 ,
His first wife was a local girl from Sling ? She may have died between 1914-15
The second Marriage Cert-stated that James was A widower.
