First World War Experience
It is impossible to ascertain whether it is Henry, born in 1886 in Hastings, or Albert, born in 1892 in Bexhill on Sea, who fought in the First World War. No first names or initials were given in the newspaper dated 2nd October 1915 stating that a Gunner Golding was serving in the 8th Battalion of the Royal Sussex Regiment (Pioneers). The only other information that can be found is that Henry was a Groom in civilian life and Albert a Butcher’s Journeyman.
