    Deacs Well i am from Cumbria.

    His Pension record as survived and is in Ancestry.
    I'm no expert but my reading is that he joined the 9th bn on the 10/4/15 but then was discharged on the 7/5/15 for 'conduct unsatisfactory ' could that not be an excuse for his age maybe.

    Regards Mike.
