Pte George Henry Barton
British Army Royal Fusiliers
from:Sheffield
George Barton is my Maternal Grandfather and I know little about him except what I have gleaned from online research and family anecdote which suggests he may have been a Bomber in a tunneling team at some point of the war. I was told that he had been discharged because the chemicals he handled in the course of setting explosive charges had caused him ill health but he was not discharged until 26th March 1919 which would probably have been his natural discharge date on a short service attestation.
