William was born 1883 in Bulwell, Nottingham, he enlisted in Doncaster though we don't know yet why, perhaps being a miner he had moved there to work. We have a copy of his medal index card is still intact and at present we are waiting to find out relevant details of his last days via the Lancashire Fusiliers War Diaries.
