George Ernest Bramley
Australian Imperial Force 1st Battalion
from:Randwick, NSW
Three Bramley brothers enlisted.
George Ernest Bramley was the second eldest of four sons. Born to William Thomas Bramley and Emily Caroline Pike, in Randwick, NSW. He was a farmer when he enlisted 28th of August 1914. He sailed on the HMAT Afric and fought at Lone Pine. He was wounded 5th of April 1915, a bullet wound to the forehead. He returned home 23rd of October 1918. He married and had a son. The son never married.
His brothers, 2114 Frank Albert Bramley was listed as missing then found killed in action, 7th of December 1915 at Lone Pine and 3019 Charles Frederick Bramley, enlisted 17th of October 1916. He was wounded but returned home.
I have no photos of them. My interest is I am writing the Bramley history. There are no descendants coming from William and Emily. Their youngest fourth son died of Spanish Flu after they returned home.
