Pte. William Turner
British Army Durham Light Infantry
from:Redcar
(d.1917)
All I know of my Grandfather, William Turner was that he was killed in World War 1 and my grandmother was sent a Scroll which read as follows:- "He whom this scroll commemorates was numbered among those who at the call of the King and Country, left all that was dear to them, endured hardness, faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by the path of duty and self-sacrifice, giving up their own lives so that others might live in freedom. Let those who come after see to it that his name not be forgotten."
