Hi Olwyn:

The 1891 date of birth for Patrick Augustine Ardagh is given on page 99 of
the official war history "Battle for Egypt" which is one of the NZ
Electronic Text Centre references on the AWWM website page for him. NB: no
WWI file at Archives, presumably because he was still in the Army
(Territorials?) in 1921.
