(d.21st Oct 1918)

George S Steed is my father's uncle. He served overseas in the 1st Grenadier Guards. He came home with shrapnel wounds in the head. He died in Torquay later of his wounds on 21st october 1918 aged 25. He was then in the Grenadier Guards, 5th Battalion, 6th Coy and is remembered on two memorials in Torquay, Devon. One is in the public gardens in Torquay near the seafront and the other is on a Commonwealth War Grave Memorial in St Mary Churchyard. He was the son of William Steed and Emma Jane Steed. The local newspaper in Torquay did a feature on him a year or two ago in the paper. The family are very proud of him.
