A World War One Military Medal and second award bar awarded to a soldier who served with the 6th Battalion of the Northamptonshire Regiment. The medal comes with an erased war and victory medals which was his full entitlement. The medal was awarded to 25409 Private (later Corporal) William Sewell. The medal is correctly named as follows. William Sewell was born in Sunnyside, Berkhamstead, Hertfordshire in 1887. William married Ada on 29th September 1909 and in 1911, aged 23, he was living with this wife and their new daughter Doris Mabel on Ellesmere Road, Berkhamstead. His trade was a painter. They had another daughter called Winifred Mary in April 1912 who sadly died in infancy. William enlisted into the Northamptonshire Regiment and served with both the 6th and 7th Battalions with the same service number. He was initially a Private and became an acting Corporal. William joined the 6th Battalion in France on 28th September 1916 and served for nearly 3 years in France and Flanders. Later in the war, 23rd September 1918, he was posted to the 7th Battalion. With him being in the 6th Battalion from 1916 to 1918 he would have seen significant action such as the following. The Battle of the Ancre Heights from 1st October 1916 – 11th November 1916. The Battle of the Ancre 13th – 18th November 1917. In 1917 – Operations on the Ancre, the German retreat to the Hindenburg Line, the Battle of Langemarck, the First Battle of Passchendaele.

William was severely wounded on 5th April 1918 when the 6th Battalion was involved in the defense of Amiens. He suffered a wound to his left buttock and was hospitalised to Rouen and several other hospitals. He was also hospitalised for a period due to a’Pyrexia of Unknown Origin’ in the autumn of 1918. Most likely a fever caused by rat bites. The award of his military medal was published in the London Gazette on 2nd November 1917 and would have been awarded for Gallantry during the 3rd Battle of Ypres.

A very good condition Military Medal (MM) dating to the First World War, with case (probably not the original case). Medal is correctly named to Private Albert Edward Huddison (from Newton Abbot), 40872, 1st Battalion, Northamptonshire Regiment. His name appears in the London Gazette dated 6th August 1918. Albert was born in 1898 and enlisted on the 22 September 1915 and was awarded the Silver War Badge No. 246573 after being wounded while serving overseas. He married Elsie in 1920 and appears to have spent his whole life in Newton Abbot. He worked as a railway engine driver and fire-man both before and after the war. He appears to have been disciplined a couple of times while working on the railways, once for being drunk and disorderly and again for refusing the drive his engine any further as his fireman was “too inexperienced”!! Albert died in 1966 in Newton Abbot. See my other auctions for more Militaria, original and reproduction.
