sandymae Posted 19 July , 2008 Share Posted 19 July , 2008 Pte Reginald John Miller is remembered on the war memorial in a small hamlet in North Devon, he 'fell in action' on 30 April 1917 in France, aged 22yrs. I have searched CWGC but cannot find him................any ideas? His brother Sgt Frederick Thomas Miller, aged 27yrs, also 'fell in action' on 3rd Dec 1917. I found him on CWGC, he is in Jerusalem Cemetery, Israel. Just to compound the family tragedy, their eldest brother died aged 39yrs on 14th Dec 1917. (he was not in action). Three sons died in 9 months.....................unbearable. Sandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
