Pte. Charles William Sheppard Plummer
British Army 4th Btn. Kings Own (Royal Lancaster Regiment)
from:Sleaford, Lincs
Charles William Sheppard Plummer, known as Bill, was my grandad. He was born on the 6th Feb 1896 in a hamlet called Limpool on the borders of Notts and Yorks. His father was a shepherd.
Bill joined the Lincs Regiment on 3.12.1914. He was awarded The Silver War Badge and discharged because of wounds on 19.9.1917. The Silver War Badge no. is 273533.
He married Harriet Reek on the 30th May 1918 at Brant Broughton near Newark and he died on 28th August 1981.
I have tried to find out where he fought but to date I have been unsuccessful. I think his war records may have been amongst those burnt.
