Pte. Herbert George Auburn
British Army 6th Btn. East Kent Regiment
from:Tottenham, Middlesex
(d.29th Aug 1918)
My uncle Herbert George Auburn, my fathers eldest brother. My father (aged 3) remembers standing in the kitchen one morning when Herbert, came into the kitchen dressed in full uniform. 'Look at me mum' said Herbert, 'don't I look smart', my grandmother cried and my father never saw him again. So sad.
Still remembered Herbert, you were never forgotten by your brokenhearted parents, brothers and sisters. RIP.
Herbert George Auburn served with the 6th Battalion, East Kent Regiment (The Buffs)during WW1 and died on the 29th August 1918. He is buried in the Peronne Road Cemetery, Maricourt, Somme, France.
