Gnr. Henry Higginson

British Army 1 Reg Royal Horse Artillery

from:Belfast

(d.21st Nov 1941)

My Great Uncle, Henry Higginson, was born in Belfast in 1920, son of James and Ellen Jane Higginson. He took part in the Siege of Tobruk and died at age 21. A month before he died a pencil sketch was made of him by a fellow soldier named Kowieski and was attached to a wooden keepsake box. The box and the picture made it home to his family thankfully. It is now a treasured family heirloom.
