This is a Silver War Badge given to soldiers to injured to fight. However, no other info is given so it may just be a red herring.
Hi lyn thanks for that.it really is a mystery. Its almost as big as how Annie found her to cotheridge. Ive sent for his wedding cert to see if throws any names up.
The Harry & Clara seems to be the right one, Lyn, but either she is jiggling her forename or else Henry married again.

If Annie married again in 1929 I wonder how she described herself. Widow or was it a divorce? If widow then it narrows the timeframe for James death.
