Rfmn. Sidney Walter Jones

British Army 2nd Battalion Rifle Brigade

from:Newbury, Berkshire

(d.27th May 1916)

Sidney Walter Jones was my Great Uncle. He died fighting in France & Flanders and thanks to the information I have found from the CWWG site I now know where he is buried.

What I have found to be so sad is that the loss to the family must have been so great that nobody spoke about him and indeed my mother never knew about him. When I told her about my findings she realised that her own brother, who was killed in WW2 was named Sidney after him. I now have a record of other family members killed in WW1 and intend to pass them on to my children so that they will not be forgotten.
