241910 Pte. Samuel Morris 16th (Chatsworth Rifles) Btn. Sherwood Foresters (d.19th Nov 1917) Samuel Morris was the young brother of my Grandmother Marian and the son of Sarah and Joseph Morris of Field House, Chelmarsh, Shropshire.
Apart from one photo of him in his ASC uniform on a horse when he was a driver with No2 Coy, 22nd Division ASC, we knew little about him until I began to research our family history other than the fact he had died during the war.
He was gassed on the 17th of November while on a working party at Shrapnel Corner and died on the 19th.
My Grandmother's second son, born on the 17th of November 1917 was to be called Samuel, a family name passed down, but the family didn't know where Samuel was.
