William "Willie" Abernethy

Queen's Own Cameron Highlanders

from:Cambuslang

(d.25 September 1915)

William was my grandmother’s uncle. He died on the first day of the Battle of Loos. He grew up in Cambuslang. Both of his older brothers survived the war, and emigrated to San Francisco, CA after the war ended. When my grandmother was 85, she visited the War Memorial in Scotland and found his name. He died eight years before she was born.
