Pte. Albert Vincent
British Army 1st Btn. South Staffordshire Regiment
from:Camberwell, London
(d.24th Sep 1943)
Albert Vincent was born in Hanley, Stoke on Trent on the 31st December 1919. He grew up in Hanley but at some time in the 1930's his family relocated back to their South East London roots. When war broke out in 1939 he was living at number 14 Droitwich House, Camberwell, London with his parents, brothers and sister. He was a prisoner of war in Burma and his name appears on the Rangoon memorial. I only know that he was a member of the South Staffordshire Regiment from his war records.
