Pte. Frederick Garner
British Army 17th Btn. London Regiment
from:40 Sarat Street, Bethnal Green
(d.1st Sep 1918)
Frederick Garner was born on the 11th of March 1880 in Bethnal Green and died on the Somme on 1st Sept 1918.
He enlisted in Bow joining the 17th (Poplar and Stepney) Btn, London Regiment. His occupation before the war was that of barman, working for the company of Wells and Co. He was married to Sarah Warren and was the father of Frederick, William, Alfred, Caroline and Ethel.
I am still looking for a photo of my Grand-father as my Grand-mother, Sarah Warren was killed in an air-raid in 1944 in Bethnal Green, as far as I know all photos were lost.
