Pte. Job Peace
British Army 8th Btn. North Staffordshire Regiment
from:Golcar, Huddersfield
(d.10th Apr 1918)
Job Peace served with the 8th North Staffordshire Regiment and died on the 10th of April 1918. This is the only information I have about my Grandfather, and we don't have any pictures of him either.
If anyone knows anything about him, or where he was killed (he has no known grave,) I would appreciate it.
Before the war he worked in the local textile mills, and he was a keen runner. I believe he ran a race against Jimmy Holdsworth, a local hero, and lost, and someone wrote a poem entitled Lines on Jimmy Holdsworth.
