Private Ernest Rushton
26070 1st East Lancashire Regiment
Lived at 225 Briercliffe Road

Brother of Samuel Rushton 70399 Royal Army Medical Corps

I had two relatives who were in Lancashire regiments in the Great War. They were brothers Samuel 70399 and Earnest Rushton 26070 living at 225 Briercliffe Rd Burnley. I found them and their service numbers on your website. I don’t know where they fought. One Ernest I think was injured. I know nothing about Samuel. I do hope you can help.
I have a photo of one of the brothers Ernest. I actually knew him when I was a small child. I'll have to do a search and send it to you. Sadly I know little about him.What a terrible war, so many futures destroyed.
