Pte. George Kennedy
British Army Army Service Corps
(d.26th October 1918)
George Kennedy is buried in Surrey. I am working on a remembrance project, Surrey in the Great War a County Remembers www.surreyinthegreatwar.org.uk. I found there was a discrepancy in the date of death between the CWGC on-line record and the gravestone for George Kennedy.
This led me to do some research into his military service and I discovered that he had been admitted to Dykebar War Hospital, Paisley on 24th November 1917, suffering from General Paralysis of the Insane.
At the moment I have little information about George and do not know how he came to be buried in a Surrey cemetery. If anyone can provide any further information about George we would be very interested.
