L/Cpl. Frederick Samuel Fentem

British Army 1st Battalion Sherwood Foresters (Notts and Derbyshire) Regiment

from:Matlock

(d.19th Jun 1919)

I came across Fredrick Fentem, a Great Uncle, when tracing my family tree. I always knew he had died in the First Wold War, as my grandmother (Nanny) named my dad after him so I heard his name quite often.

I hadn't realised he was a professional soldier having enlisted in 1907 at the age of 18 years, and at his death was a Lance Coporal. Frederick died in Flanders, France in 1915. I think Nanny grieved the loss of a favourite younger brother.
