Group of Deddington soldiers before going to war
This photograph is from the Hancox family archive. Written on the back it says "Group of Deddington soldiers before going to war? 1912?"
It does look like a group of army soldiers but, if taken in 1912, would either have been a Territorial Army group or a battalion of regular Ox & Bucks soldiers. However, the group is bigger than Deddington likely could have mustered for either at the time, so perhaps it 'contains Deddington soldiers'.
