Pte. James Clay

British Army 5th Btn. Cheshire Regiment

from:Cound, Shropshire

(d.17th May 1918)

James Clay, my uncle, was one of 4 brothers to serve, the other 3 all belonging to the KSLI. Sadly Jim was the only one of the 4 to be killed in action. His other brothers survived the war but sadly Samuel died from pneumonia on his return home. Joseph and George both survived and had long rewarding lives.

James' name is on the war memorial in his home village of Cound in Shropshire. Gone but never forgotten.
