Pte. Robert Mitchell

British Army Northumberland Fusiliers

from:Newcastle-on-Tyne

(d.1st July 1916)

The family story is that Robert Mitchell (my great grandfather) went out with his friends one night, got drunk and came back rather shamefaced the next day and confessed to his wife that he had enlisted. He went out to the front, and was killed within weeks, leaving a widow and 10 children.
