Pte. George Godwin
British Army 5th Btn. Royal Irish Regiment
from:Clonsilla, Dublin, Ireland
(d.20th November 1915)
My great great uncle, George Godwin, was a private in the 5th Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment. His surname is incorrectly stated as ˜Goddard on his death documents and medal cards.
George was born in 1894 in Clonsilla, Dublin. He was the younger brother to my great grandfather. George died on the HMHS Carisbrooke Castle Enterie which is a hospital ship. His cause of death is unknown but possibly from disease. George is buried in the East Mudros Military Cemetery in Greece.
