Leeds Grenville OGS free online presentation

Join us on Monday, November 4th at 7:00 pm to learn about the service of a British soldier in World War 1. Branch member Mike More will give a presentation about his grandfather’s experience in the British Army in the First World War. Mike says “to many Canadians, The Great War was fought in the trenches of France. But my grandfather spent almost five years in India and the Middle East. This was truly a global war and, although few Canadians served on other fronts, there was a great deal of fighting outside of France, and “Soldiers of the King” were involved in all of them, along with many other nations. I’ll give a brief summary of what happened in the other areas of the conflict.

Mike More retired from the Canadian Forces after 32 years service, and is an active Ontario Genealogical Society Volunteer, with the Society as the provincial coordinator of The Ontario Name Index (TONI), with Ottawa Branch in many roles, and as the Technical Host of Zoom webinars for the Leeds & Grenville Branch. Mike has been tracing his roots for about forty years.
