British Army 2nd/5th Btn Leicestershire Regiment

from:Battersea

(d.26th Sep 1917)

My Great Grandfather John Richard Read served with the 2/5th Battalion, Leicestershire Regiment. I have a hand written letter from his CO and a old picture of himself and his wife. He died on 26th September 1917 and is commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial, Belgium. I am searching for any information and would like to hear from any family members in the UK.
