Pte. Alexander Morrison
British Army 6th Btn. Gordon Highlanders
from:Cullyblean, Tullynessle, Aberdeenshire, Scotland
(d.4th June 1915)
My Dad, George Wm Morrison over the years has often spoken of an uncle he never met as this uncle, affectionately known as Sandy, went off to war and died in action as a young man about 9 years prior to Dad's birth. With age Dad speaks of all his uncles and recollects those he had fond memories as a child, teen or as a grown man. Sandy still gets honourable mention by my Dad who is 91 years of age. I have a photo of a young Gordon Highlander soldier but were unsure who he wass ...one of two possible relatives. Today I searched the Internet for uniform info and service records. So happy to find my Great Uncle Alexander Morrison. May he rest in peace knowing I admire the photo and his courage.
