I've worked with Sabina previously on research for lost medals. She recently contacted me again about the WWI trip awarded to 3332 Albert William Hampstead.
It didn't take me long to identify Albert's family tree and work out the name of the current generation. Through a combination of information from Ancesrty.com and social media Sabina and I narrowed down the contact details of a descendant of Albert. Sabina contacted that person and as it turns out, Albert's 96 year old daughter is still alive.
This was a wonderful collaboration to see three more medals returned to the family.
The returned medal tally is now 3014.
