Pte. William Bradley

British Army 6th Btn. Royal Irish Regiment

from:Derry

(d.13th February 1915)

William Bradley enlisted with the National Volunteers following John Redmond's call to fight for other small nations. Just under 300 nationalists from Derry answered this call and they were led by Redmond's brother, who had already been imprisoned twice for his Irish Nationalist ideals. William Bradley was one of the first to die, succumbing to illness at the Fermoy training camp in Cork where he was buried. His brother Fred joined at the same time and managed to survive for another year before dying of wounds received in Belgium.
