Pte. John Mead

British Army 1st Battalion Lincolnshire Regiment

from:Markyate, Hertfordshire

(d.13th October 1918)

My 2x great grandfather John Mead was born in Markyate, Hertfordshire, in 1885. Having a wife and 4 young children (all under ten), when WW1 broke out he enlisted at Luton, Bedfordshire. He was a private in the 1st Battalion, Lincolnshire Regiment. He was unfortunately killed on 13th of October 1918, in France and Flanders. He us buried in Terlincthun British Cemetery, Pas-de-Calais, France. I'm sure he was a brave, young father, like many other men, just trying to do his bit for the country.
