Pte. Edward Knight
British Army 18th Btn London Regiment
from:Ealing, London
(d.8th April 1917)
My Great Uncle Ted Knight joined up with his younger brother Oscar Albert Knight (who joined the Royal Fusiliers and died on the 15th of September 1916). The family believes that he and his brother died within the same month as one another but we are unable to find Edward listed on the War Graves Commission site. We have his medals, still boxed, and with their pristine ribbons unattached, but as yet have been unable to find where he is commemorated.
Editors note: Edward is buried in
Lijssenthoek Military Cemetery in Belgium.
