Pte. Joseph Brayton Scott
British Army Cheshire Regiment
from:3 Stuart Road, Tranmere
(d.27th May 1918)
I am researching the names on my old school's (Birkenhead Institute) Memorial to try and find out more than just name, initials, which service and date of death. As I find more details about them their families and sometimes their work and leisure I now wonder which battles they were involved in.
I think from Joseph's date of death he could have been involved in the Battle of Aisne. Can you confirm this ?
The thrust of this is the threat to our (uknwm listed) playing fields from housing development.
64744 Private Joseph Brayton Scott served with the 10th Battalion, the Cheshire Regiment during WW1 and died, age 19, on the 27th May 1918. He is remembered on the Soissons Memorial, Aisne, France.
Joseph was the son of Joseph and Lucilla Scott, of 3, Stuart Rd., Higher Tranmere, Birkenhead, Cheshire.
