    Hello Joe my name is Mark I work for Sefton council we have a lottery funded project just starting, part of which is researching Sniggery camp at Little Crosby, we have found a ground plan from the 20's I believe the 3RD Battalion used this camp in 1914 if you have any pictures from this time or any other info it would be very welcome.

    Thanks Mark

    I know its a bit late after original posting, but wonderful stuff Rumjar! Do you have any names for the photographs? Looking for a great uncle Philip Sidney Houlgrave who signed up in 1914 and served with the 19th Battalion. Died from wounds in April 1918. Many thanks

    Hi Joe

    Thanks for getting back so quickly. I'm afraid I don't have any photo's but wondered if he may have been indicated on any of your images. He was only 5' 5" tall and weighed 175lbs and he smoked a pipe (like most) so potentially first left, bottom row of 'diggers' photo above (long shot I know!). I'm aware this is more of a genealogy question rather than a collectors issue so may be inappropriate for here. I'm sure this would be great subject for the Merseygenealolgy website ( a liverpool based genealogy forum that is amazingly helpful at finding out old relatives) and they may be able to assist with putting names to faces.

    cheers

    Denis
