204798 Pte. James Cleave Todd Wooler British Army 10th Battalion Royal Fusiliers from:Long Preston, Yorkshire (d.14th Sept 1918) My great uncle James Wooler died on the 14th of September 1918 near Trescault while using a lewis machine gun, he was shot dead is friend Pt Ayling was captured by the Germans. My uncle's body was never found, so this year I tried to find more about him, got in touch with the commonwealth war graves commission. I got old local papers from 1918 with his death in it but He had no death certificate, so I sent all info to them, they got in touch with the Ministry of Defence and they are going to put his name on war memorial at the Vis-en-Artois memorial in a few months time. A lot of hard work help from a lot of good people and all worth it. I'm glad I did it, he wont be alone any more.
