Pte. Charles Brogden
British Army Army Service Corps
from:Boars Hill, Oxford
(d.15th February 1917)
Charles Brogden was born in Cumnor, Berkshire, which is just outside Oxford. He would be a great great uncle of mine. His father was John Brogden, an agricultural labourer in Cumnor.
He enlisted in Abingdon, Berks and his theatre of war was "Home". He died in Bath War Hospital of chronic bronchitis according to the Oxfordshire Weekly News of 29th February 1917. He was aged 40 so could have been married. I have not found any other information yet about what his job in the ASC was.
