Pte. Leonard Frank Ricketts

Leonard Ricketts was one of my great-great-grandmother's brothers, of whom two fought in WW1. His war record does not survive, but he was wounded by a gunshot through the hand in 1915 and was captured at Ploegsteert on 11th of April 1918. He survived the war, married, had two children, and moved to Wales, where he died in 1968.
