143526 Lance Corporal Alma Horton Army K.O.Y.L.I. 18th Batn Cyclist Corp from:South Elmsall (d.22 Oct 1917) I am adding my unknown story of a young man who enlisted in 1916 age 19 and died age 20 from an injury to his arm on the above date...I have no other info on this man my Uncle..not even in his civilian life..am saddened that he along with many other young men at this time did not live to have families of their own...but heartened that they are all remembered...if there are any photos of his Battalion on your site...how are they to be found..I will retain the details of the Cyclist Corps..for my Family History File. Writing about him acknowledges that he existed albeit his existence cut short by The Great War.. Additional Information: Alma is buried in the Dozingheim military cemetery in Belgium.
