Pte. Ernest Henry Hartley

British Army 103 Coy. Machine Gun Corps

from:Tadcaster, Yorkshire

(d.10th Apr 1917)

It has taken me ages to find out anything about Ernest Hartley, after much research, I have now found him. He was born in Tadcaster, Yorkshire in 1890. His Dad, Henry Hartley, born 1856. His Mother, Emma Bulmer, in 1864. He was formerly 37901 West Yorkshire Reg and died from his wounds in France and Flanders on the 10th of April 1917. I am now trying to find if he was trained at Belton House in Grantham, where the Machine corps were trained to use these guns to overcome the Germans, who had been using these weapons for year and were killing thousands of our soldiers.
