Family, friends and comrades of Emlyn James and Batchie née Griffiths
Dedicated to my grandparents, John Emlyn James of Llandrindod and Elizabeth Jane (Batchie) Griffiths of Llandovery. Emlyn James joined the Herefordshire Regiment in September 1914 and served in Gallipoli, Egypt and Palestine, and on the Western Front. Batchie Griffiths served as a Red Cross volunteer from February 1918 to February 1919. Her photo album and autograph albums are the source of much of the information in this community. Emlyn's two brothers,Tom (Thomas Lloyd James) and Ted (Wyndham Edward James) served, as did Batchie's two brothers Willie (William Thomas Griffiths) and Johnny (David John Griffiths).
