If anyone has a Fold3 sub, perhaps they can have a look in case of mistranscription?

Argyll Suth. H'ders., perhaps? (Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders)


As you have his service number, etc, you can possibly apply for a copy of his service record - though it will take many months to arrive;

Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

On the pension records for Albert Robinson b. 1900 his corps is shown as Argyle Huth Holers. Google doesd not bring this up as an Army unit. Can anyone help please on the identity of this corps.
