Pte. James Henry Hopper
british Army Seaforth Highlanders
from:Leyton, London
(d.8th August 1944)
James Hopper is my mother's brother. My aunt remembers his wife who was from Scotland. He originally came from the Leyton area and was posted to Scotland. I think he was with the Black Watch as well as the Seaforth Highlanders. He was 24 when he was killed in Caen,I believe. He was killed on the 8th August 1944. My aunt kept mentioning 'Tilly La Campagne' or a battle in which he was killed.
