205056 Sgt. William Ernest McMeakin British Army 1/4th Btn. C Company Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry from:Kirkdale, Liverpool (d.5th Oct 1944) Bill McMeakin was my father in law whom I never knew. He was killed in action on the 5/10/44 in the battle for Poppel forest near the Dutch town of Goirle. He is buried in the war cemetery in Leopoldsburg just over the border in Belgium. My wife, his daughter Patricia and myself visited his grave last May. An extremely moving and sad moment. Bill's name is on the war memorial in the town of Goirle, although it is spelt wrongly. ie MacMeakin instead of McMeakin. If any of Bills old comrades are still about, or if anybody knew him, we would love to hear from them.
