Pte. Frank Farley
British Army 1st Btn. East Surrey Regiment
from:Little Haven Lane, Horsham, West Susserx
(d.4th Oct 1917)
Frank Farley was my paternal Grandfather. He enlisted in the East Surrey Regiment in Chichester. Precise details of his service were destroyed when military records were destroyed in London by enemy action in WW2.
He was killed at Ypres on 4th October 1917 near a village called Broodseide.He has no marked grave as his remains were never found, but his name appears, with others from his regiment on the frieze at Tyne Cot Cemetery in Flanders.
