(d.4th Oct 1917)
Harold George Hurdley, my great-uncle, was killed in action in Ypres. He is commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial in Belgium, and also has a memorial headstone in Broseley Cemetery, Shropshire. He was 23 years old, and the son of George and Clara Hurdley of 27 Church Street, Broseley. His sister Freda was my grandmother, and my father, Harold Hurdley Green, was named after him.
Editors Note: Private Hurdley most likely died fighting The Battle of Broodseinde which took place on 4th October 1917 near Ypres.
