Sgt. George Bosson
British Army 81st Anti Tank Regiment Royal Artillery
from:Kidsgrove
(d.30th Jan 1944)
Recently I found a clipping from an old Evening Sentinel newspaper
dated Wednesday 15th of July 1942.
North Staffs Families in the Forces
Four (should read five) sons and a son in law of Mr & Mrs H Bosson of 17 Galleys Bank, Whitehill near Kidsgrove, who are serving in the Forces Driver Mechanic W. Bosson (William Amos) R.A. who is serving overseas
Serjeant G. Bosson (George) R.A.
Gunner G. Bosson (Gordon) R.A.
Private Frank Bosson Royal Berkshire Regt.
Private John Sheppard, South Staffs Regt.
and Private Harold Bosson Home Guard.
As you can see this was a jackpot find as it has my Grandad and all my Great Uncles and the husband of my Great Aunty Hilda.
I have never seen a photo of William or George before so I thought I would share as they all played a part in the WW2 forces.
