Bmbdr. Solomon Yewkins
British Army 59th Brigade Royal Field Artillery
from:Brockmoor, Dudley
(d.1st Jun 1917)
Solomon Yewkins was not a relative but his name appears on the Brockmoor church war memorial. Brockmoor is now part of Brierley Hill, which is now in Dudley, it used to be in Staffordshire.
This war memorial has been 'lost' for some time but the names are available through newspapers of the Great War period.
I am helping to research names on this memorial.
Bombardier Solomon Yewkins served with the Royal Field Artillery 59th Brigade and died on 1st June 1917.
