    I have a group of medals to a Trooper Churchill of the 2nd King Edwards Horse, one of the medals is a privatly awarded medal, which I assume is from the Regiment as the ribbon is their colours. The inscription on the medals reads for bravery in the Field in Irland the other 2 medals are the war and Victory medals to Sgt. Churchill. I have been able with some help from a friend to possibly put him in Dublin during the Easter Rising but can find no real mention of his name.
    Can anyone help with any information please.

    Hello Brabant. This would really be better on our British Medal Forum - you
    are more likely to get responses and info. from Members.

    I will leave you to re-post - and will then delete this one. Mervyn

    Looking at Wikepedia, the full title was the King Edwards Horse (The King's Overseas Dominions Regiment) and was a cavalry regiment of the British Army, formed in 1901, which saw service in the Boer War and theFirst World War The medals are certainly British.and the Dominions concerned are shown on the Badge around the central Royal Crest.
