[Father and two sons].

Studio portrait of a soldier in the Welsh Regiment with two boys in sailor suits and holding toy rifles. The soldier is holding what appears to be a jewel case containing a pendant.

D C Harries, Rhosmaen Street, Llandilo.

[Farrier, Royal Engineers]

Head and shoulders portrait of a soldier in the Royal Engineers (note the shoulder strap) who has insignia marking him out as a farrier and a member of the 9th (Scottish) Division. In addition he has four overseas service chevrons and a wound stripe.

[Farrier Staff Sergeant]

Studio portrait of a Farrier Staff Sergeant. Note the three stripes on his sleeve supplanted by a crown. The horseshoe between the two indicates he is a farrier. No indication of Regiment. He has a pistol in a holster attached to his belt.

[Eight Soldiers]

Eight British soldiers arranged in two rows of four, the back row standing, front row sitting, three of them holding rifles. They are wearing an array of different cap badges. The presence of medal ribbons, wound stripes and overseas service chevrons suggest the photo was taken after the end of the First World War.

D C Harries, Rhosmaen Street, Llandilo.

Dr Bratten

Head and shoulders portrait of a man in military uniform probably in the Kings Shropshire Light Infantry with a Red Cross shoulder patch.

D C Harries, Rhosmaen Street, Llandilo.

[Decorated Veteran Officer #1].

Full-length portrait of an elderly army officer wearing a plumed hat and displaying six medals, mainly from campaigns in India. Note that the wearer is not wearing a Victoria Cross and is therefore not thought to be Sir James Hills-Johnes of Dolaucothi.

D C Harries, Rhosmaen Street, Llandilo.

[Decorated soldier and son]

A private in the Royal Artillery displaying two wound stripes, two good conduct chevrons, five overseas chevrons and medal ribbons. The lower overseas chevron appears to be a different colour than the others suggesting it was coloured red to denote service in 1914. He has a patch on his upper arm showing crossed trumpets and identifyimg him as a trumpeter. He is photographed with a boy, presumably his son, aged about ten years old.

Davies, Tregib Cottage

Head and shoulders portrait of a soldier, 'Royal We...' visible on his shoulder title and an unidentified (recognition?) badge below. Negative inscribed 'Davies, Tregib Cottage.'
