Hi Wayne,
If you have Findmypast his attestation papers are available.
A real Cornish man 3030 Private Thomas Danning was born in Liskeard , Cornwall in1871.
Attested to the DOCLI at Bodmin on 16/10/1889 aged 18years.
A miner by trade he was 5'5" and 125 pounds in weight. Chest measurement 32 1/2".
Fair complexion, grey eyes, dark brown hair.
Wesleyan religion.
He was considered unfit for service due to his undersize chest, but clearly this was overcome.
Next of kin were parents John and Mary Ann.
Younger brothers John, William, George, Ben.
Thomas was married to Emmalena with whom he had a son James.
He was also entitled to India General service medal with clasps Punjab Frontier and Tirah.
So maybe chance of a reunite.
I hope you find this info useful.
Cheers Steve
