I am trying to trace the family of Great War officer Lieutenant George Osborne-Jones. I believe he was from the Swydd ffynnon area and was wounded and mentioned in a local newspaper.

One of two brothers who served. Sadly his brother, Noel, did not survive.

A few years ago my wife did some research and traced the surviving family. Unfortunately she passed away last October so that the thread is lost.

We were collectors of militaria and bought an officer’s sword from the 1st War. To our surprise it is a named sword to: Osborne Jones, Wilts Regt, 1915.

I would like to pass on thesword to the family if possible as I am sure that my late wife would wish to do so. Any help you could provide would be appreciated.
