Harry Bowers
British Army
from:Salford
Harry Bowers was my grandfather, I know he was a mature soldier who served in the first world war and as he was from Salford I would love to know if he was in the Salford Pals. I have tried contacting the National Archives but his records were destroyed during the second world war. His date of birth was 16th August 1884, his Mother was Margaret Bower and his father was Tippo Dalton Bower. Any information you could please provide would be very much appreciated All that I know was he had a soldier's uniform and came back to Salford after the war with frostbite. He sadly committed suicide at the age of 46.
