Pte. Albert Charles Purnell

British Army 7th Btn. Gloucestershire Regiment

from:Dundry, Somerset

(d.13th Nov 1915)

My great uncle, Albert Charles Purnell, enlisted in Bristol 1914 aged 17 and joined the 7th Battalion Gloucestershire Regiment.

In 1915 his battalion left England and sailed for Gallipoli landing in August 1915. Sadly, Albert was killed in action on 13/11/1915 aged 18 and is buried in Hill 10 Cemetery Suvla Bay.

May he and his comrades rest in peace from a grateful and proud family.
