Working on my Rank and File wounded and I have the following entry:-

King's Liverpool Regiment
Private
T.H

Wounded

A search on the National Archives Discovery Catalogue gives me a entry for


Description:

Medal card of Jones, Idrish
Corps Regiment No Rank
Private King's Liverpool Regiment Depot 49514

I cannot locate this entry on Ancestry to see if a mistake has been made in the spelling. Has anyone come across the forename Idrish?

Muchas Gratias
