I am searching for a John Henry Thompson, who survived the First World War, having a leg amputated after 4 years and 3 months service.

John Henry was born around 1891. His first wife was Hannah Wooler, and his second (common law wife) was Phyllis Miller.

I will be grateful for any leads.

Searching in what way as you obviously have details from his WW1 service or pension record
