Pte. Thomas Murphy
British Army Royal Artillery
When my mum was a young woman my grandmother got a telegram to say her son Tommy Murphy of 10 Chalmer, Greenock, Renfrewshire was missing in action at Normandy, I have always wondered if Tommy was buried in Normandy cemetery
I know my mum tried to find out if he was buried in Normandy.
Now my mum has passed away it is always in the back of my mind
i would be grateful for any information. Tommy served with the Royal Artillery.
