My Grandfather William Smith fought in WW1 - he was in the Welsh Fusilliers. He was born in Collyhurst Manchester and moved to Wales

Good luck with the research

Gillian - the Topic that included your original message in General Chat, has now been locked, hence it's been copied here onto this board for the benefit of any other researchers of Smith of Macclesfield area, & who might want to respond to you.
A second copy has been posted on the
"East & South-East Lancashire - Smiths" board
(includes Bury District)
So you might want to click on "Watch this Topic" for replies on both boards?
