Collection of photographs and medals

This is a set of First World War miniature orders and medals on a chain. They show, from the front and viewing from left to right, the French Legion of Merit, the French Croix de guerre, the French Academic Palms, the Serbian Order of the White Eagle with Swords, the Greek Order of the Redeemer, the Greek Order of George I, and the French medal of the Orient. The set likely belonged to a French officer, as it was common to have the highest orders from ones own country on the left of a set of medals, then orders from other countries, and then the lower-ranked medals on the end, right-side of the set. The Serbian and Greek orders and then the Orient medal seem to indicate these were for an officer who had seen service in the Balkans during the First World War. || French Legion of Merit.

Two campaign medals from the Great War || Medals belonging to James Shuttleworth. There's not much I can tell you about these, except that I've grown up with them. They are from the Great War for Civilisation. This one has 1914-1919 on it. The point being that it's not the family name, it's the step-father name: Hainsworth, with an aitch H. The stalls in Preston used to have the name Hainsworth, even on the warehouse door. One is gold, one is silver. Well, we assume it is silver. || || 53.763201,-2.7030899999999747 || Two Campaign Medals
