Pte. George Cunliffe
British Army 7th Btn. South Staffordshire Regiment
from:Sunderland
(d.6th Nov 1918)
George Cunliffe was my grandmother's only brother and my great great uncle.
I new very little about him until recently when I found a number of medals which had been left to me by my late father a number of years ago. George was only 19 when he was killed in action on 6th of November 1918, 5 days before the end of the war. Having carried out some research, I have discovered that he served for the 7th South Staffordshire Regiment and is remembered with honour at the Vis-En-Artois Memorial in France.
I do not know any other details regarding the circumstances or battle in which he was engaged at the time of his passing.
