Pte. William Rae

British Army 2nd Btn. Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers

from:14 Muirhead St, Kirkintilloch, Scotland

(d.22nd of October 1918)

My great grandfather, William Rae, was called up late in the war. He was a miner and didn't have to go but changed to a job above ground and was apparently eligible to fight.

William served with the 2nd Battalion, Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers in WW1. He was already 40 years old and was killed very late in the war, in fact only 3 weeks from the end on 22nd of October 1918. He is buried Duhallow A.D.S. Cemetery in Belgium.
