Joseph Paterson Finnie

British Army 2nd Btn. Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers

from:Calton, Glasgow

(d.11th July 1916)

Joseph Finnie was my grandfather's brother and 20 when he died in WWI. We visited the War Memorial at Edinburgh Castle in 2010 and saw an entry about his death. "Joseph Finnie 19281 was born in Calton, Glasgow, and killed in action F & F 11/7/16. 2nd Bn."

Also from Scotland's People website I found a death record "Statutory Death 135/AF 0013 on 11 July 1916 for a Joseph Finnie age 20, killed in action from the 2nd Battalion, Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers".

My grandmother's sister reported to us that Joseph died in Argonne, France.
