Thanks guys!

I was able to purchase a WWI era medal grouping from an estate sale a couple of months ago, I asked the people who ran it if they had a name though they had no idea. I didn't really care because they were dirt cheap, so I was and am still pleased with the purchase. Though after further research I realized it was within the traceable range and would love to put a name with this small grouping. The number for the Mexican Boarder Medal is 13,412 Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.
