RSM Francis John Gorman MID, MSM

British Army 6th Btn. Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers

from:OMAGH

(d.6th March 1919)

Frank Gorman was my great grandfather and I have only discovered anything about him a matter of weeks ago. Today is the 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Somme, and it is only right that he should be remembered with pride by his family. He joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers at 15 years and 6 months old in 1891, and served for 21 years 203 days finishing on 8th January 1913, returning to fight in the Great War. He died on 6th March 1919 leaving behind my great grandmother, Isabella, whom he married in 1900, as well as five daughters and two sons. I have no photos.
