I am trying to find information and eventually service records and such on three brothers who joined up at the beginning of WWII. They all intended to join the Black Watch in Montreal but the older fellows were sheet metal workers and when those in charge learned of their trade they were reassigned to Ordinance. The youngest stayed with the Black Watch and was possibly a drummer in the Pipe Band.
The brothers were:
John Leroy Young
Leonard Earl Young
Earl "Bubsy" Marvin Young RHR (1939-1945), Black Watch, 1st Battalion.
Member Royal Canadian Legion, branch 198, Rawdon, Quebec - Deceased 2004
Any suggestions on where to look considering this is all the information I have so far?
The last remaining family member, their sister Grace and my grandaunt, will likely be the person to apply for their records once I find sufficient information. We are trying to create a family history and want very much to include their service in the Forces for their grandchildren & great-grandchildren.
Best Regards,
Joyce
