Pte. Edward Matthews

British Army Queens Own Royal West Kent Regiment

from:Swanley, Kent

(d.20th August 1944)

My great uncle, Edward Matthews, was captured at Dunkirk and spent the next 4 years in different POW camps in Germany and Poland. He died as a result of an air raid at Auschwitz III Monowitz in August 1944. He does not have a marked grave, but maybe one of five unidentified Allied casualties buried in a common grave in the CWG cemetery in Krakow, Poland
