16th July 1915
Killed in action within a few days of arrival at Cape Helles on Gallipoli
35
Helles Memorial, Gallipoli
First World War
Serjeant
6th Battalion South Lancashire Regiment
Served in the Boer War. His date of death is an interesting movable force - the war diary gives no illuminating information as to his correct date of death - CWGC states that it is 13th July, his family the 16th July. He was also a drummer and musician. NB The date of death understood by Arthur's family and the official date of his death on CWGC are different - I suspect that Arthur's family might have known more than official records but I leave that for others to speculate... but then again France isn't Gallipoli?
