Hi, My name s Lynne. I am researching my great uncle Fred Meek (Private 20874) before visiting the memorial at Thiepval where he is remembered in November. I came across a group photo of the 22nd Battalion, D Company, Plattoon 14 dated 1916 on Find My Past which came from the Manchester and Lancashire Family History Society. Does anyone know if I can find out online which man is my uncle?

Lynne,

The answer is no.

All Platoons had their group photos taken c. April 1915 at Heaton Park.

They were for the book, 'Manchester City Battalions Book of Honour".

The photos appear next to a list of those on it but not in the order they stand, so unless he is of an unusual appearance, rank etc there is no way of knowing.
