Pte. Charles Ernest Woolley
British Army 5th Btn. Northamptonshire Regiment
from:Dudley
(d.1st Aug 1943)
My father Ernie Woolley was killed in action in 1943 in Sicily during World War 2. I think it was at a place called Centuripe.
He was born in Ellesmere Port but moved to Dudley in the West Midlands.
I understand that my father was buried in a shallow grave during the fighting. His body still lies there in an unmarked grave.
