L/Cpl. Kenneth John Farmer . British Army 7th Btn. The Black Watch from Birmingham UK
(d.25th Oct 1944)
This was my Uncle Ken. I do not have a lot of information on him as my family fragmented when my parents divorced when I was 9. I was always in awe of my hero uncle who died at the age of 19 in a place called Halschewater in the Netherlands on 25/10/1944. He was one of only two 7th batallion members recorded killed that day. The other was CPL Harold Dawson 2885672 who was 27. I never really got any details from my mother about his short military career other than he was a "Leading sniper of eight" whatever that meant. He is buried in Eindhoven (Woensel) General Cemetery grave # 179 in plot KK he is there with a lot of aircrew that had died during the many operations from 1940 onwards. His comrade in arms Cpl Dawson was returned to Aberdeen and laid to rest by his family. I have two children of my own now and I tell them often of their great uncle who went to war and never came home. I look at my son who is now the same age as Ken Farmer was when he served and I shudder to think of what my Grandparents and Mother had to deal with when they heard their first born had died. I will always be proud to carry his name and I will ensure he is never fogotten by my clan. Rest in Peace Ken, you saved us all!
