little bob Posted 26 December , 2011 Share Posted 26 December , 2011 48852 Thomas Frederick Bevans 1st Bn Lancashire Fusiliers died aged 20 on 12th April 1918 .He has no known grave and is remembered on the Ploegsteert Memorial. Thomas was born in Milford Haven in 1898, the son of John and Mary Ann Bevans. He had previously served as 204623 Middlesex Regiment. Could someone help me with the location of the Lancashire Fusiliers around the date of Thomas's death please. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
