L/Cpl. Simon Jones
British Army 5th Btn. South Wales Boderers
from:Bargoed
(d.25th Mar 1918)
Simon Jones was 26 years old when he died in action. His remains were never found. He is my Great Grandfather. My grandmother Elizabeth Mabel Suller was born in August 1918.
Unfortunately Simon was never able to see his daughter. We treasure the service penny awarded to my grandmother and my children are enjoying learning about the life of their great great grandfather today as we prepare for VE Day celebrations 75 years on.
Simon Jones' daughter (my grandmother) lived to 101 years of age. We lost her at the end of 2019.
