L/Cpl. Albert Isaac Hutchinson
British Army 7th Btn. South Staffordshire Regiment
from:Leicester
(d.17th Aug 1917)
Albert Isaac Hutchinson was my maternal grandfather. My mother was born in February 1916 and, as far as I am aware, Albert only saw his youngest daughter once. My mother often spoke about finding his grave - all she knew was that it was in Belgium. It was not until after she passed away in May 2000 that I managed to find where he is buried, and my own daughter and I are going to visit his grave in August 2016. I have discovered only today that his record contains very little personal information - I do not know his date or place of birth for example, and the cemetery record does not have any detail of his wife, Ettie Alexandra Hutchinson. The home that he shared with Ettie and their two daughters was in the Leicester area.
