Pte. Mark Ellwood
British Army Seaforth Highlanders
from:County Durham
Mark Ellwood lied about his age in order to join up and go to war, he had not quite reached his 17th birthday. I have not yet found a lot of detail on his service but know from relatives that he was gassed, his lungs alway having problems since. Apparently when he returned home her was quite nervous and had shrapnel injuries.
