Hello

Trying to trace a L/Cpl Alfred Taylor of the Coldstream Gds who died 3/5/16. Interested in his cause of death as believe he was killed in a shell accident as Ypres Prison with Clr Sgt Fuller (and 8 wounded)

Any one able to help or look him up in any Birmingham newspapers?

Thanks Ian

Hello Ian

The following is taken from "The Birmingham Weekly Post" published on Saturday 20 May 1916. Sorry, there is no photograph.

"Corpl. Alfred Taylor, Coldstream Guards, has died from wounds. He was 22, and leaves a widowed mother at 146 Wheeler Street, Lozells. His only brother is now in Salonika."

Regards

Terry
