Gnr. Alfred Frampton
British Army 224th Siege Battery Royal Garrison Artillery
from:Sandown, Isle of Wight
My Grandfather Alfred Frampton joined up May 1916 aged 39. He was a postman on the Isle of Wight and left behind a wife and son aged 5 years. After training, he was sent to France in January 1917 but was sent home sick by April due to frost bitten feet and being gassed. My father remembers visiting him at Bartholomew's hospital in London as a boy of 6 and seeing a Zeppelin flying over London. He eventually returned to convalesce on the Isle of Wight and was discharged November 1917. He lived on the Isle of Wight the rest of his life and died in 1959.
