Pte. Herbert Richard Crouch 14th Btn. London Regiment Herbert Crouch was a Private in the London Scottish Regiment and served in France and later the 30th London Regiment. He was wounded in France, the rest of his company being killed in the same artillery barrage. He recovered in England and was then reassigned to a POW camp in Massachusetts, USA, where he met his first wife. They were married in 1920 and initially lived in England, but then moved to Weston, Massachusetts. He married Grace Bentley from Cohasset, MA.
She died in 1941 and he remarried my mother, Mary Alice Bailey in Weston, MA. Herbert died June 25, 1975, in Hill, New Hampshire.
He was born at Cranmore Cottage, on Cranmore Lane, in West Horsley, Surrey, on 3rd of March 1897, son of Frank Crouch, a local grain merchant.
I am one of his two sons and live in Tucson, Arizona, USA, but was born in Boston where he lived his entire adult life after leaving England. I have met his three sisters in England and cousins in Australia.
