Jonathan "Joss" Burnett
British Army 12th Btn. Kings Regiment (Liverpool)

(d.8th Oct 1916)
From his 1914 enlistment papers, Joss Burnett was to be married in October 1916. I have never been able to find the name of his fiancee. Joss's brother Thomas was killed in October 1918 and was with the Australian Army, as the family had decided to emigrate after the death of Joss. Upon the day that he joined, Joss was given the Eagle and Child cap badge, which was given to all who enlisted in Liverpool making up the pals regiments by Lord Derby.
