Harold Banks
British Army 44th Btn. Reconnaissance Corps
from:Disley, Cheshire
(d.11th September 1944)
Harold Banks was my great granddad. He died when he was 38 during the 2nd World War, he served with 7th Btn. Royal West Kent Regiment and the Reconnaissance Corps. His wife, my great gran, told us about him. She had a little card he had made from a bit of leather with a feather stuck in it. She passed away in 1989.
I did a search and found that Harold is buried in Italy in Coriani Ridge Cemetery. I don't know if my great gran ever got over there. They had two daughters Joyce and Greta. Grandma Joyce has passed away but Greta is still with us.
