Pte. David Brown
British Army 17th Btn. Royal Scots
from:Kirkintilloch
(d.27th Aug 1918)
David Brown served with the 17th Btn. Royal Scots and I have been asked by a relative of this soldier to find out as much information as I can about him. I have a story from the local newspaper by his mother Mrs. Brown of 119, Cowgate, Kirkintilloch asking for information on her son who she believed was being held prisoner had died in Caudry Hospital on 27th August 1918. A note of caution. This article is said to have been published in the Kirkintilloch Herlad on January 8th 1918 so it could be that he died in 1917. He is buried in Caudry British Cemetery, Nord, France. Do you know what action he had been part of?
