W/O Peter McDermont
British Army Ayrshire Yeomanry Royal Artillery
from:Kilmarnock, Scotland
(d.29th Seotember 1941)
From what I have been told, Peter was a loving father of 2 children. His wife died in childbirth with their 3rd child in 1938. When he was killed, he left behind 2 children with no parents. My mother-in-law, Mary McDermont, Peter's younger sister, raised both children in her parent's home in Kilmarnock. That was when family was important and meant everything.
