Sgt. Charles Milbourne Wright
British Army 11th Btn. Leicestershire Regiment
from:Kettering, Northamptonshire
So far it's unknown when Charles Wright signed up but he was born abt 1899 Leicester, Leicestershire to Francis William Wright and Jessica Allan Ross Frazer who was born in Nova Scotia, Canada to a Scottish Family. From what I have found, he was an only child but had a lot of Frazer cousins in England, Scotland and America. Charles served with the 11th Battalion, Leicestershire Regiment and was commissioned into the Queen's West Surrey Regiment on 4th of May 1917.
I am still trying to find more information on Charles and his military career but I will keep searching.
Thank you for the information you have provided about the 11th Leicestershire Regiment.
