Pte. George Samuel Frederick Ward
British Army 10th Battalion Worcester Regiment
from:Tottenham, London
(d.13th Jan 1916)
My great grandfather was George Ward. I was privileged this year to visit his grave at the Vaast Post Cemetery in Richebourge being the only member of my family to do so in 97 years.
The sad part of our family story is that my grandmother was only 4 years of age when her father died and didn't really remember him, but on my grandmother's death we found a small picture hidden away in her handbag of two men and written on the back in my nan's handwriting was written "one of these two men is my dad" which we found very upsetting and despite extensive research we have never been able to confirm the identity of the two men.
