from:Hamilton
(d.6th July 1916)
My great-great uncle, William McQuatter Stevenson enlisted in the 9th Battalion, Cameronians in his hometown of Hamilton, Lanarkshire. He was killed in action on 6th July 1916, aged 30 years, during the Battle of the Somme (Battle of Albert). He is commemorated on the Thiepval Memorial. We believe he was married to Grace. William was one of four Stevenson brothers who served in the Great War. His brothers John and Charlie also died, with only brother Alexander surviving to return home.
