Pte. David Lloyd
British Army 15th Btn. Cheshire Regiment
from:Llan-Ddewi- Brefi
(d.20th August 1917)
David Lloyd was one of 12 children. Because of the lack of work in Cardiganshire at the time nearly all the children left for London to work in the dairy trade including David.
My grandmother was the eldest and helped bring up her siblings. When David prepared to leave for war my grandmother walked from her home Esgair garn down to the village to see him off. She was heavily pregnant at the time and the strain and worry brought on the birth of her daughter (my mother)a month early.
David earned the Victory Medal and the British Empire Medal
