George Stevenson. Royal Engineers 1939 - 1945.

Complicated relationship to me. He is blood related as well as being the nephew of 2nd wife of my Great Grandfather. She was a Stevenson by birth but married into my maternal Grandmother's family.

Sgt John Henry Stevenson MM. 1886 - 1936.

My 3rd cousin 2x removed.

He served with the Lincolnshire Regt. Awarded the Military Medal and Croix de Guerre.

Do you know the whereabouts of his MM and Croix de Guerre?

**Adrian Stevenson** · 10-14-2013, 08:58 AM

Sadly they are lost.....I have asked!

The family moved to the North East.

As you can see, I am very interested in family history too. Hence all the Stevensons in this thread.

Cheers, Ade.

Its good to see that you know so much about your family history. I am currently trying to research my Grandfather who was ground crew in 235 squadron coastal command. I must say its easier to research WW1 relatives !
