Missing Medals

CSM (Company Sergeant Major) Percy Patrick BYRNE was my grandfather and following his death in 1961 my late father sold his medals. He also was awarded the French Medaille Militaire, 1914-15 Star, British War Medal, Victory Medal, Territorial Force Efficiency Medal and Silver War Badge number 60235.

My Grandfather, Major F.H. KIDD served in the 159th Siege Battery, Royal Artillery in Mesopotamia and I believe he won the Territorial Force Medal and British War and Victory Medals.

I am looking to find Harry's WW1 medals He seved in Gallipoli and was killed in 1916 near Pozieres in France. There should be 3 medals (1914-1915 Star, British War Medal and Victory Medal) he would have been entitled to and impressed with his name. Thanks Ken

My family is searching for the First World War Memorial Plaque attributable to James Leonard FOLEY. Served in Gallipoli and France. Killed in action age 19 years. James was the son of Edward and Eliza Foley, of Cadow Street, East Kew, Victoria.

My family is searching for the missing war service medals of Roy Edgar Lindsay SPRING. British War Medal No.37994 issued February 1938. Victory Medal No. 36364 issued February 1938

My great uncle James RAPHAEL served in the Boer War 1900 - 1901 and was awarded the Queen's South Africa Medal with 3 clasps, Cape Colony, Orange Free State & Transvaal. I only discovered this information recently and have started the search to find his medal. I do know the medal was sold at auction in London through DMW in 2005 and that it was purchased by a dealer in the UK. If anyone knows the whereabouts of this medal I would be most interested in hearing from them.

I am trying to locate Boer War and World War 1 medals and any associated militaria for William John Jones. Boer War service number 2319, Rank – Private, Unit: 4BN Australian Commonwealth Lighthorse (Victoria). World War 1 service number 949; Rank – Private/Driver; Unit: 6th Infantry BN “H” Company; Enlisted 17 August 1914; Embarked from Melbourne 19 October 1914 on HMAT Hororata A20; Returned to Australia 7 September 1915 on Ascanius; Discharged Melbourne – 25 July 1916. Medals from World War 1 left family in 2000, sold to a collector, collector sold medals in 2004 through Noble Numismatics in Melbourne. Will consider reasonable price to enable either medals and/or any militaria relating to William John Jones, to return to the family.

I have not seen my grandfathers medal engraved with his number on the back, #1201 for some time, plus a medal my husband's grandfather was awarded in the South of France, it wasn't a recognised medal, it was for a shooting competition, which I understand they held regularly. If anybody has any knowledge of where they could be, my family would very much appreciate hearing from you.
