Susan,
In one of your e-mails you said that both of your grandparents were members

Morning Helen
I had thought of that and contacted the Registra, she informed me that his
birth details and place of birth was not entered as at that time it was
not required!
Regarding his Army Record, I did buy one but turned out to be the wrong
Evan Davies, so would need further advice
Regards
Susan
